PzC France 1940 help

[BluntF]

Just picked up my first HPS Sims game after many many years of being hesitant and only playing Battlefront or Matrix titles.

France 1940 is just the grognardy title I was looking for but I have some questions and maybe you all can point me the right way.

1) is the getting started section the only tutorial?

2) Is that scenario designed for German fail? It is a tough one and in 8 turns I cannot reach the 2nd objectives it is very hard to break that french line

See my attached screenshot.

Is the game primarily about attrition? It seems hard to destroy enemy units?

This is my first encounter with the game system as I am used to Eastern Front etc etc it has a different combat look with the morale and fatigue and such.

Thanks for all help!
