Here is a West Front scenario named "Assault on Wailley". It depicts part of the battle of Arras on 21 May, 1940. Again, it is a conversion of an original Panzer Leader scenario, which itself was a conversion of a micro-armor battle. Alas, I could not find out who the author of the original scenario was.
Alan R. Arvold
21 May, 1940
Wailley; 6 Km SW of Arras: [Best played against human opponent.]:
With the Allied armies in disarray, Viscount Gort, commander-in-chief of the BEF, decided on a counter attack against the German offensive in the vicinity of the town of Arras in an attempt to at least delay the German offensive, or at best, cut the spearhead of
the German army off. Leading the attack was a battlegroup codenamed Frankforce, commanded by Major-General Franklin. Frankforce attacked
in two columns, this scenario depicts the right column's advance against the town of Wailley during the assault, which is held
by elements of the German 3rd SS and 7th Panzer Divisions.
This scenario is based on an original Panzer Leader scenario.

Great scenario - pretty well balanced, with a slight lean favoring the Axis in my view. Very enjoyable!
