Unfortunately, each side has different objectives and this takes away from the overall battle.

There were some very good firefights, but for a great portion of the battle, we were not in contact because my goal was to seize objectives and the German goal was inflict casualties and minimize losses. The German side did not know about my objectives.

I took a back door approach and seized two key objectives without firing a shot, which I thought was strange. The German side did not fight me for the objectives because he did not know that they were objectives for me. I did not try to seek him out and engage him because I was holding my objectives, waiting for a counter-attack. So, not much happened for the latter half of the battle.

I always find CM battles are best when both sides are fighting for the same objectives.

The lack of objective points for the Axis side was problematic to the enjoyment of the map.

Adding those in, or making this a meeting engagement with victory locations in the middle of the map might serve it better IMO.
