Two good write-ups Steve.
I did think the second game was going to be much easier for the British attackers given their extra units - I suppose in the end it did very much go in their direction, after a couple of slightly sticky turns.
Glad to read that the FT17s where proxies - thought the Germans where really scraping the barrel with them!

Great looking games and interesting write ups, I'm looking forward to following this campaign as it progresses
Thanks Paul!
@ Fred. There is always much talk about what Beutepanzers the 21st Pz Div had access too, with some French tanks used for airfield security IIRC. There are certainly photos of similar KO'd tanks in Normandy. So a bit of artistic licence and Hey Presto! they appeared in this action :D ! Maybe one day I will actually get to paint up my French tanks alongside the infantry too... :-\ .
Another fab looking game.
Thanks Will :) .
Nice looking table set up.
Thanks Graham :) !
Great stuff, Steve. :)
Thanks Phil!
