What a great scenario and very tough for me. First attempt ended with de Lattres boys getting a proper kicking from the VM annd a Major Defeat.

Second attempt where I tried to be more patient resulted in just managing a Minor Defeat

What was impressive though was the way the AI reacted to a flanking move I made to try and bypass the very tough strongpoints at the southern end of the pass. It repositioned reserve forces to cover the exposed villages just to the north in a general widespread redeployment. Really good to see.

If anyone else has won this one comfortably you have my sincere admiration
