It's not so much the balance of the scenario as far as forces go. It is more in the victory conditions. I don't recommend it as a PBEM game.

Seems impossible for the Germans
Tough attack for Axis.
Very tough for the attacking Germans. The objectives are not right, as they encourage not attacking.
Here\'s the funny thing. I won as Germans without taking an objective hex. I just lost one tank. I think the key is to inflict enough casualties without losing a lot of tanks. No need to go for the objectives as this will get your tanks destroyed for sure.
Scoring seems off. The German is tasked to attack by the scenario notes, but starts at a Major Voctory even thought holding none of the objectives. I think the scenario designers made a mistake with the victory levels (easy to do, but playtest should have caught).
Scenario has a problem with the Panther V missing a MG.
My German officer who controlled artillery support got knocked out on turn 1 or 2 which turned out to be the kiss of death as the Germans were sitting ducks being in the open, with no cover, while trying to attack.
Only good if you're the Americans. Germans start with a major victory and any attempt to actually attack the Americans results in dropping eventually to a loss if you persist. So there is no incentive to be the Germans in this unless you just sit there till its over.
