Help for a Newcomer - Clipping the Hedges.

[GerryM]

First PB game and first JT game I have played in a long time. I earned an Axis Major Defeat in this scenario, I forgot smoke so that would have saved me a PzIVH and some men too. All the Amis in the hex were Isolated and Disrupted, except for the Guns, at the end. So maybe I wasn't far off. Lots of bocage so limited visibility in this scenario.

Some questions:

1. The victory hex is in a field (-10%) with a Trench (-30%). Three Pz IVH had No Effect firing from two hexes away. Is that normal.

2. One PzIVH firing adjacent to the hex had no effect.

3. I cannot remember the 60mm and 80mm Mortars doing anything either. 

So obviously I need to forget about Kursk with those bunkers.

Any help appreciated.
