The germans react quick and send their armoured units to a hill, while the french further advance! The german infantry from the woods also advance to the little village in the center but get caught by french artilleryfire killing or supressing the units.

The Germans closing in with their tanks to get max. firepower. A little risky but its works. A lot of tanks burning but the french have lost their heavier tanks and also reached their breaklevel and failed their first test!

At all a nice game done by webcame.
