I set my gaming table for Rommel using my homemade mat.
I rolled for terrain as called for in the rules, and then generated it randomly, and placed it randomly. Here is a video of the set-up.
The scenario called for a fighting withdrawal by the Germans. There were 5 objectives for the Americans to capture. These objectives disappear over time. So the Americans are in a bit of a rush to capture 3 as soon as possible. They gobbled up the first one on the first turn. Here are videos of the first three attempts.
Second attack: the Germans were able to use some tactics to hold on.
The third attack: with just enough op chips to launch a third tactical phase, the Americans take the objective.
Conducting three tactical phases for a turn was expensive. The Americans were doing some maneuvering that I didn't cover in these videos. This gave them a shot at a second objective. Here is a video covering a little of that maneuvering and the German response.
My final video, of the first attempt to take the "second" objective.
Great reports. I have a large force of 3mm stuff for Rommel (focused on Americans, Germans, and a little for North Africa)---this makes me want to break them back out for more gaming.
