I also bought a German company to prevent Blue on Blue.  Had some really good games. 
Game 1 was a draw.   I was on the objectives, but the Germans kept contesting it, and we timed out.

Game 2 was a disaster.  I was against Nick Ridge's German light panzers.  I couldnt kill them.  But they couldnt kill me.  As it was a defensive mission, they won.

Game 3 was against Rusty's poles.  I was using my Germans.  I held on for a win -- but it was touch and go for a while.

Game 4 was against Griggsy.  He had no naswer to my Matilda as they walked to the objective.

Game 5 was against Robs BAR.  I was using my Germans, and I had no answer to the thousands of small tanks.  How did the British lose in France?

I ended up in the middle of the pack, but it was a great 2 days!

It was also a robotics weekend, so I played Scythe with the robotics kids!
