[Halen, Belgium]:[H2H/Central Powers][HIS][CSL]: The Schlieffen
Plan required the German right wing to wheel quickly through
Belgium. The German First and Second Armies had to outflank the
left wing of the combined Anglo-French armies. The German 2nd
Corps, led by General von der Marwitz, led the way. The cavalry
crossed the Meuse river and proceeded towards Brussels. At first,
the Belgian forces offered minimal resistance. Then the German
cavalry reached the town of Halen, with its bridge across the
River Gette. The momentum of the German advance had to be maintained
at all costs. The cavalry had to cross the bridge, occupy Halen
and push on. General de Witte and the Belgian Cavalry Division
were waiting. Could they buy the Entente more time? This is an
adaptation of a Spearhead scenario, originally designed by Robert
Dunlop.[ALL OPTIONS]

Just the right number of turns to produce a draw. One more and the Belgians would have been toast.
