Make the objective clear-able; something that size is just not manageable. And while depleted units are historically accurate and supportable by period documentation, in game terms, a squad that starts down more than a couple of men simply is of no practical value to an attacker. Recommend full-up squads, but fewer squads, if you want to simulate losses from previous battles. Also, that rising ground on the German right makes a great overwatch position for the Germans, especially for tough frontal-armor on Panthers. They're invulnerable up there, and they can see almost all of the leading edge of the Brit position. Flatten it; make it more of a challenge.

Seems well balanced. Entering you think that the SS units will roll over the hapless Canucks, but those tough Canadians can hold their own just fine!
"The only way I got to keep those tigers busy is to let them shoot holes in me!"

Played on Veteran setting. I would like to clarify as a 'first impression' that I feel the scenario was Strongly but not Totally Pro-Axis

The Canadians need more infantry AT assets. Two PIATs is not enough.
