ok "Bretteville L'Orgueilleuse" out of the Rapid fire scenario book on normandy.

I finaly got some 1\72 models, the inf need bases decorating yet, and I dont have the correct german tanks, not got a few things right yet but I thought I would give the scenario a playthrough.

Rapid Fire is good, and cheap the rules are £5.00 GBP New

after a quick play, I discovered the panthers had class 1 guns and the canadians ATG were class 3, so the Panthers were hitting quite often, the infantry supprisingly are the real problem for the germans. I will go again see how it works out

had to peel back battlefield, as units were getting blocked, its an easy mistake to make, to over model a wargame​

Great work.

This French site told me more about the battle and led me to study it further. Google Translate can help if your French is lacking
