Lock N Load Tactical: Rejoining the Regiment

Played this one today with my son.  Germans came very close to pulling off a win.  The US managed to rally just in time to block the road off the map.  The Germans jumped into melee and took those US units out but that blocked the hex from being moved through.  The remaining US units went to the exit hex so the Germans would have to stop and melee instead of getting off the map.  The other US option would have been to go into melee with the Germans who would have had to fire or accept the melee and they only had just enough to get off the board for a win if they moved everyone.

ASL Scenario BFP028: Marco Polo Bridge

 Finished up the Marco Polo Bridge scenario today.  Despite my whining the Japanese managed to win.  Mainly due to being pro-Japanese more than anything.

The Japanese manage to hang on just..... long enough.  One more turn would probably have finished them off.  The Chinese made it onto the VC bridge and were within range of the VC multi-hex building (had to have one or the other) but probably could not have taken it with the troops available.  My PMC nearly failed a couple of times when the Chinese managed to generat Six! heroes during the game.  Oww!  Even with that luck was fairly consistent with some good rolls and some bad rolls for both sides.
