Well, played a scenario having the Germans make their main thrust against the British with most of the spearhead aimed at Amiens and then to Abbeville by sea. It worked out great until I rolled rainy weather which turned the area into a giant marsh and slowed down the Stosstruppen units movement, thus preventing them from rolling into the Channel Ports unopposed. The line definately got bent a bit and a good part of the British Army was mauled.
Unfortuantely for the Germans, they were unable to grab enough objective hexes to win by Turn 9, so they were forced onto the defensive. The Allies were slow to launch counterattacks but eventually the front was ruptured between Verdun and the Swiss border with a stream of French and American units driving east to Strassbourg and north into Luxembourg/Belgium.
It was pretty much a disaster for the Germans, more than what historically occurred.
