Their armor has been pushed back into forest and town hexes. And two of their Infantry units have each retreated to defend the Medal Objective hexes in the city of Caen.</p> <p class="p2">And yet, no one has lost a complete unit yet.</p> <p class="p1">The lesson is this: each commander is subject to the historical realities which have been built into the game, to the extend that they represent what actually happened.</p> <p class="p1">In this scenario, historically, the Allies did drive the Axis back. So this current situation between the two sides is a perfectly accurate representation of the disadvantages the Axis faced.</p> <p class="p1">Who will win?<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>That remains to be seen, based on, as usual the cards, the dice, and most importantly the wits of each commander!</p> <p class="p1">~~ General Howitzer</p> </blockquote><br> Upload Files:Add another file ...Maximum files: 2 · Maximum file size: 6 MB · Allowed file types: jpg,jpeg,gif,png,bmp,pdf, webp, heicCancel Please leave this field empty Don’t miss out on Memoir 44 tips and news!
