Calais (beta2 - scenario 18 - British)

[charonjr]

Calais - Field Marshal - previous DV

Starting with 3990 prestige and got myself a 3rd SE PzIIIF, down to 2580 prestige after reinforcements.

One of my Stukas got the first Knight's Cross at turn 3.

The battle was won by turn 9/19, but as usual I continue playing.

As can be seen by the turn number when I could have won the battle it was too easy, especially when you get lucky with the weather (had 1 turn of rain) since then the Luftwaffe will rule the sky and blast the enemy armor to pieces with 3 Stukas.

DV at 19/19 with 3380 prestige. As written before, I think that this one was too easy. More armor might be good since it is hinted at in the briefing anyway.

This was a somewhat paradoxical scenario, I was able to beat it handily under the time limit, getting a decisive victory at turn 12. The fighting that did occur was fairly intense and with all the rough terrain, I still felt it was fairly challenging.Charon suggested adding armor, and this is a good suggestion, but I would be more inclined to just knock 2-3 turns off the timer instead.
