2023-11-25(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best British winThis is one of those scenarios that make you scratch your head. It's solid history based, but Three Jagdpanthers versus 10 Churchills is hardly a game worth playing. The Germans have a 10-2 Armor Leader as well. In our game, Dan's Jagdpanthers would knock out 8 of the Churchills without a scratch. I would smoke every chance I got and keep my Churchill's in Motion. At game end, one Jagdpanther exited and the other moved up to try and kill the last two Churchills which were smoked and in motion. Dan's boys couldn't get hits in Advancing Fire and so the British would win. Yeah...cheesey...sleazy feeling to my win...but I did what I had to get the victory. Not a very satisfying game. How could it be? Every hit was a kill from the Jagdpanthers. We only rolled to see if the tanks were burning. And the 75's had zero change agains the frontal armor of the Jagdpanthers. There's a reason this scenario doesn't get a lot of playings. #1...it's not competitive and #2 the German player still loses because of silly stuff. So there's that. This is a great scenario to teach the game for a newbie. Give him the Germans and watch his smile grow as he brews up Churchill after Churchill. He'll be hooked after that!!!
