In this well-balanced scenario, a Canadian force had to defend a number of villages against Germans who were attempting a counter attack some days after D-Day. The scenario comes form the Rapid Fire! website, which provides a number of freely downloadable scenarios. These have clearly been well play tested, as they always seem to provide a close game.

In the end, the Germans managed to secure a win. Principally this was because an entire battalion of Canadians defending one of the villages failed a morale test – after their HQ was KO'd – and desert their posts, leaving the village to the Germans! That said, the arrival of 5 Panthers also helped decide the day.
