Someone jog my memory

[John1966]

Many years ago when I first played CMBN, there was a a first scenario I played that I think I was directed to after Basic Training. Couple of American platoon, possibly three. A handful of Shermans. Some hedgerows. A small farm to the left. Don't think there was any offboard arty. Pretty simple stuff. On that fairly useless description, anyone remember what it was?

Basically my son has taken an interest in playing and I thought it'd be a good one to start with (as I did).

That sounds like the second scenario from Road to Montebourg, but could be a lot of them really.

I agree, that'll be the one.  Nice little introduction...

There are three different versions of that engagement. The demo, the stand alone battle, and the opening mission of the Task Force Raff campaign. All take place on the same map, but have subtle differences. A great way to introduce someone to the game whichever one you play.

It is, indeed, 1 Training - Roadblock.

Cheers.

I thought I was being all clever, but it seems I was not the only one to figure out what mission it was based on the description

It was my first CM scenario too.
