Destination Paris!
The Allied armour pushes towards Paris, due to bad weather and effective Luftwaffe patrols the allies need to secure information on the defences of the city before proceeding further. OSS operatives located an SS Panzer commander who can tell them the in and out details of the defences so the allies despatched a taskforce to capture him.
Scenario rolled for was Manhunt! So the Germans began the game deployed in the middle of the board.
The first wave of GI's arrive and are met by a hail of LMG fire from the SS.
Turn 2 the Luftwaffe Support arrives and drops a large bomb on the Lt. Gaylord killing him, his batman and 3 GI's from an adjacent squad.
The SS then move up and using their Panzerfausts knock out the Stuart from point blank range, the LMG's then poured fire in the Veteran GI's pushing up from the south.
The Half track then comes on and is immediately assaulted by the Regular GI squad hiding in the wheat field, what they didn't count on was the 5 kitted out Veteran SS inside wiping them out to a man.
The Bazooka Runs on, only to be chased down by the Recon Bike and killed with MMG fire.
The Panzer II Luch's then moves onto the board and combined with the Flamethrower attack from the Sturmpioneer breaks the 2nd squad of Veteran GI's.
The US observer calls in his airstrike and hits the SS Veterans with a small bomb, they went down so only lost 2 men but took 4 pins.
The Veteran GI's ran forward with the Aircraft suppressing the SS only to be outflanked by the second squad of SS coming on from their half track.
After 2 turns of shooting the GI's are finally brought down to 1 man - but pass their break test!
The SS charge the solo GI and capture him.
The Allied armour is forced to retreat from Paris and the Axis armour pursued.
