Nice little scenario, but probably quite the challenge for the Axis player due to the forces and scoring for the Allies.

The Germans are undermanned in terms of AT Weapons and in terms of soldiers.

Can't really see how they can inflict any serious harm on the Allied forces.

slightly pro allied. Maybe few extra infantry soldiers could be added for the defender.
turn based H2H with CMBN, CMRT, CM Black Sea, CMSF2, CM Cold War. Game engine v4.

It's understandable that the German defenders are outgunned and outnumbered given the scenario. However, with only a section(+) of infantry and a 50mm ATG vs a platoon of infantry in HTs with 0.50s and a platoon of tanks, it is more of a heroic last stand :-)

Play balance could be improved by adding another section of German defenders and either reducing the time to 30 minutes or having the tanks arrive 20-25 minutes into the battle so the Allied player has to take some risks to make it through.

First time I've played against LuckyLlama. He was a great opponent, making me think hard, and he was very prompt with his turns. I enjoyed the battle. A nice little map, and a small number of forces makes it a nice game to play. Would make a great introductory scenario for a newbie
