Codename
Summary:
The Axis forces are scattered across the battlefield, while the Allies are lined up against their border ready for attack. The challenge for both sides is to make their way across the open battlefield. Using hedgerows and forest hexes is the best way to move your forces towards the medal objectives in each of the towns. There are two medals each for Axis and Allies. They seem to be within reach, but getting to it, and holding it are two different things. You will have to make sure you have dealt a crippling blow to any nearby enemy infantry before you seek to posses a town hex medal.
Objectives:
Six VP’s, with two Objective Medals for the Axis.
Battlefield:
Countryside scattered with forests and hedgerows.
Troops:
Allies – 9 Infantry; 2 Armor
Axis – 8 Infantry, 1 Armor, 1 Artillery
Allied Strategy:
Be careful of the Axis artillery on your left flank. They can reach nearly to the back row of hexes. And any attack attempted upon the two infantry hexes at A5 and d4 will be supported by a two-dice response attack from the artillery.
