Thanks for that. What's interesting to me though is in my scenario I have 100 victory points, the same as you, but my axis opponent also has 100 victory points, what is the difference? Just the fact that they surrendered? It's interesting. Only a relatively small difference in kills...Also interesting to me is how differently the engagment areas are. I never came in contact with the enemy in the north west corner of the map, or the south east corner, and you have so many troops there etc... Interesting... The only objective I did not hold most of the game is the St Oedenrode Hwy Bridge which was blown by the germans in the first day. Also, I was not aggressive attacking the enemy unless they were in force near the objectives since I was unsure how quickly their strength would erode. Also, almost all of the heavy fighting occured around the Veghel bridges. The second most activity occured around the Best Bridges...I destroyed many enemy units there...Interesting how differently these played out...Thanks for the info...

No problem, I'm not sure why but with all the scenarios I play I rarely get bridges blown up in the face of my troopers. Not exactly sure why... I wish I COULD see more bridges blowing up [:D]. It maybe that I rush the bridges very quickly with piecemeal sized formations. Regarding St.Orenode, I made sure to above all keep the center flushed off enemy troops. I thought the left would be devoid of enemy at the start, then I saw this was not to be - its funny how you saw diffrerent enemy build up points. It was a tense scenario throughout. Will you go for the Nijmegen campaign now?

Actually, looking back on my screenies, I recall seeing a very tense period when on day 3 the enemy were breaking into north Eindhoven and building up at Beek in the east.
