The Blitzkrieg Legend Play thru # 2.

10^th of May, The Roermond-Weert-Eindhoven line are attacked by commando forces from Germany. Leiden, Ridderkurck and Dordrechet are air assaulted by the 7^th FJ successfully. It is a text book start to the illustrious German blitzkrieg model. Air and sweeps suppress the pathetic forces of Europe.
10
4^th and 11^th and related forces move. With the attacks and commandos the 4^th Pzr makes it all the way to Eindhoven. Additional units pass thru the now open roads to Bree! This play thru we will see if we can finish off the Dutch quickly twice!
SS Viking and 9^th Pzr exit Reserve mode and truck on and thru the breaches.
In the Ardennes 1Krd from 1^st Pzr requires two 87b strikes to soften up 5^th cavalry along the narrow roads.
The Belgian 1^st ChA are DG’d and the Lehr armoured car Bn calls in 2 strikes as well against them at the key road junction @ 31.17. They are seeking to clear the road to Marche en Famenne/Reccongne. Follow on forces overrun the Belgians.
Supply is moved forward, but not as adroitly as the German commanders’ desire.
At Bastogne- Lille Hwy the 1^st Cav are DG’d and overrun by 7^th Pzr. Each side taking an option loss. The road stays blocked! 5^th Pzr now commits and overruns forces losing the 1/31 in the process. A rough start but it could always be worse.
During the combat stage of the turn in Maastricht the attack fails! The Fort takes a step loss though.
Further north in Holland the 3^rd Panzer units drive deep 3/1+1/1 attack with 22^nd @ Dordrecht (31.48% of Atk losses) take an option loss and enforce a loss and an option loss/retreat. The 1/1 dies at the gates.
In the Ardennes the 4^th Cav is not attacked by 1^st Pzr rather, 2^nd Pzr bring arty to bear. The subsequent attacks force Krd off the map with losses and the French simply yield a Arty unit for its loss. The roads are still held…..
During the Exploit phase the 10^th Pzr barrels in, overruns the 12^th Ch from 5^th Cav and takes Paliseul. 6^th Pzr joins 10^th via its Reserve move and the 29Motorized moves into the Bastogne area.
In the North the SS:V and 9^th Pzr move along the canal line bordering Northern Belgium, driving deep looking for an exploitable location to cross at.
The Germans face a choice – strike South @ Sedan or head for a breach around Dinant area. There is some confusion about the plan given the weaker than expected results of Turn 1.
