Moyland Wood, 8km E of Kleve, Germany: [Best played as Allied] As a preparation to the planned "Blockbuster" offensive in the Rhineland of 1945, it was necessary to secure an embattled stretch of woods near the town of Moyland. To this end, brigades from three separate Canadian divisions struggled to clear "Bloody Moyland," and reach the planned start line for Blockbuster along the Goch-Kalcar road. The Germans had other ideas, launching a sharp counterattack with KGs from both 116th Panzer and Panzer Lehr to hold the line and protect the Rhine bridge at Rees.

Germans have way too many troops and Panthers to defend with. Extremely tough for the Allied side.
“The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth.”― George Orwell (1984)
with a few more turns the axis counter attack would have had enough time to be succesful
If 2 old pros play the scenario, I feel that it is almost impossible to win as the allied player.
Don't waste your time.
Resolve then, that on this very ground, with small flags waving and tinny blasts on tiny trumpets, we shall meet the enemy, and not only may he be ours, he may be us. --Walt Kelly
