mjkerner Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Lol, yeah, that one got plenty of (not necessarily good) press when it first came out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Wow.....What a tricky little scenario, even once you know where everything is! Quite a bit of effort went into that little map too, by the looks of things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffin33 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 My solution (on the 3rd try, I believe). Put my entire platoon in the building in the courtyard and simply slugged it out with the Farmhouse. Patience, it takes several turns, and did use the light mortar to take out the sniper team. Then tried dropping the heavy mortar on the Depot - that was a failure. Put smoke out, and under that cover got the entire platoon in position behind the rock walls to fire on the Luftwaffe position in the Depot. I believe the piat got two hits on it during the firefight when the smoke cleared, but was able to eliminate all defenders there. When the last Luftwaffe fell in the Depot, the Axis surrendered. AAR: NZ: 17 Men OK, 10 KIA, 3 WIA. Luftwaffe: 2 Men OK, 8 KIA, 4 WIA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simicro Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 (edited) Not sure it's needeed anymore but: *** SPOILER *** I got CMFI and addons 3 days ago and to start with it, I choose this small scenario thinking it was well suited for beginners... Oh man... I've made more than 20 attempts during all the week-end... and eventually succeeded. Even when you know the tips given by other mates in this thread it's still difficult. In my case, I first killed the sniper using artillery, put a line of smoke between the train station and the farm, then sent all my 3 squads to the farm. However at mid way of the hill climb, I ordered one squad to face back and target the train station to suppress it while the smoke was vanishing, in order to allow the 2 other (or what remains of them) to assault the farm. When done, I had only 5 men remaining. During the prudent walk down of the hill, there was no enemy fire and I felt that the victory was assured. Indeed during the final assault of the train station middle house, I found 5 germans: 4 were broken and the 5th was quickly eliminated. Havin won this one, I now feel prepared for many other CMFI scenarios to come @JonS If I understand correctly you are the author of this scenario, so kudos to you!!! It is about subtle tactics and not about solving a puzzle since mates have achieved it in different ways, with variations for each way. Just one question: so BFC commissions some scenarios to community creators? Edited May 1, 2023 by Simicro 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a group of forum members that beta test the games and content and some of them also create the scenarios. @JonS is one that does both. He also gives great feedback to the rest of us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simicro Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Thanks IanL for your response which satisfies my curiosity (for better understanding the BFC 'ecosystem' and 'who is who') 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simicro Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Anyone knows a famous scenario similar to this one (ie small smap, limited number of units, hard to win) for CMFI or CMBN, and unanimously praised by the community? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avanti! Hard to win as the US. Nice to play as the Italian. I liked it a lot! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simicro Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 Cool, thanks for the recommendation! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db_zero Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 This has always had a reputation as being a difficult one to win. It took me numerous tries when first released to win as allieds. I just started a mirrored h2h game. Should be interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
