The Amy H | Brian Wiersma | German | 2021-03-10 | Won | The main german attack hit the Northern British flank and drove and early wedge. The Matilda then malfunctioned its gun followed by a disable result on the repair attempt. With thee the Matilda recalled and the Germans firmly in place to break open the the British centre and left Brian conceded. We immediately set up to play this one again. | 9 |
The Amy H | Brian Wiersma | German | 2021-03-10 | Lost | Second game played in the same day. The German attack in the north was slowed somewhat in the early stages by a snipe kill of an 8-0 along with pins and breaks but the southern thrust at bldg Z7 went extremely well. By the end of British turn three the northern attack was ready to clear the square while but two tanks had been lost. The southern attack had effectively cleared Z7 and was ready to push forward. The generally favourable dice turned at this point and while turn 4 saw the square cleared the British got away with only the loss of the MMG crew (228). The southern attack crossed the road to W8 and prepared to move to support the main attack. The turn 5 attack across the square was a disaster for the Germans. 2, 4 FP attacks with low (or no) DRMs and 6+2 from the Matilda's CMG pretty much broke every German moving forward. This left the final attempt on turn six short of infantry and the remaining British infantry in building W3 (2 squads, a 228 and 7-00 held off the attack. In the south a brief British dash into building F7 was dealt with by the remaining German forces in the area that could not add much to the attack up north. A hard won but clear British win. | 9 |

Craig Renier | 2022-07-14 | The Germans clustered the pillboxes against the pond in the center so there was no approach outside of any CA. The Canadian MTR and captured AT gun failed to get smoke on the first turn, making any approach hazardous. The attack was pressed on one side with the defenders having good luck. However, a few Canadians managed to get through the residual and FL so they could enter CC at favorable odds. Once one pillbox was breached, the remaining pillboxes had little recourse. We made a few mistakes on pillbox rules which may have swayed the result. Overall, well played by both sides. A fun short, albeit somewhat one sided scenario. | |
Mark Thompson | 2022-07-14 | The Canadians depleted smoke on both the 51 MTR and captured 75L AT Gun in their first shots and initially bungled their close approach to the German's tight-knit bunker system, but eventually pushed through to engage in CC with each of the bunker occupants without having to cross the bunker CAs. The Germans severely bruised the Canadians with an effective fire lane and other residual and, although the Canadians prevailed in all CCs, several were achieved through a mutual misinterpretation of ambush rules in the Canadians favor, so a draw best captures this neat little scrap. A good primer on Pillboxes. | |
Allen Evenson | 2022-11-12 | I had chances at CC against Pill Boxes early but didn't get the rolls. Should have used smoke more. | |

Stephane Nolet | 2024-10-20 | The Canadians missed the victory by a turn. The Royal Hamilton Light Infantry eliminated all but one German squad, but was only controlling one Pillbox at the end of turn 4. The Pak 40 performed poorly being broken on turn 2 (B#10 and TH Red numbers and +2 TH DRM for a capured Ordnance) The Canucks were unable to repair the PAK 40 the squad manning it broked and had to rout. Fortunately the 51 mm Mortar layed some SMOKE to cover the attack. The Canadians were lucky with 3 SAN resulting ine three broken squads that were easily defeated in CC thereafter and they also rolled 2 Heat of Battle resulting in a Hero Creation and a Berserk squad that eliminated a 8-0 and a squad in CC. With another movement phase the Canadians would have controlled 4 Pillboxes but instead they only were controlling one Pillbox at game's end resulting in a German Win. |
