Playing the Brits on this one was tough. Poor green troops against vet/elite/crack german units really went through hell and most of them did not make it to tell their story. I really wonder how on earth one could manage to win this one with the British... Maybe the destruction of the attacking PIV could be rewarded with more points ?
Interesting concept, but not sure about its fun factor. As the British, I found myself quite often pressing the End Turn button, with little to next to nothing to do. Playing an active defense with the - very poor - Britist troops wasn't really feasible.
Tough one for the Brits
Too one sided with elite and crack paras armed to the teeth with automatic weapons and backed up by tanks v green Brits with rifles
