Scenario: Feedback Scenario 243 - First Shots of the LAH

[BigDuke66]

Good scenario but I wonder if the scenario length is correct, 21 turns is very tight for my taste as you need some turns to get into combat at all.
Also seeing that there are 2 ammo trucks for the German side makes me think that the scenario might should last longer.

Most scenarios are designed to be rather "tight" turn wise to be challenging because the designer wanted it that way.
You can always give yourself more turns or more gear if you want in the scen.editor.

Had a try at this a couple days ago. It's challenging--what with all the VH's--but if you stay patient (especially with those doggone snipers!), use artillery effectively (smoke and bombardment in proper measure), assign forces proportionate to particular objectives, and get a little lucky you CAN get a DV.

Unfortunately I fell short on the first qualification. Impatient over delay around the first objective, I rushed in an armored car to flush out what I thought was a sniper (it wasn't ), and lost another to something unexpected at the next bend. So after half a dozen turns there was only one car left.

Yet I persevered, and took all but one VH. The surviving car was essential in taking two VH's beyond the range of plodding infantry. Had there been more time--or, more to the point, if I had another armored car --the last VH would have fallen too. Quite entertaining and instructive.

Yea loosing those cars early was no help to me.
