I was still in the mood for a Normandy game and wanted something with Churchills and ruins. So I set this up at my place based on Operation Express (July 22, 1944).

Time to call the game though. Slow movement on the part of the Brits allowed the German armour to get positioned and make it hard to maneuver what was left of the Churchills. Brits still have the mortars and vast majority of their infantry. None of Martin's grenadiers were hit.

German losses were 12 of Stephen's 54 grenadiers. 2 MMG teams eliminated. 1 Pak hit by the stonk. All 3 snipers out of action.

Wilts had 12 of 72 troopers casualties. 4 of 9 Churchills KO'ed. Time for the second wave to take over and some mortars to fall on the rubble.
