Gembloux The Feint Price: £15.99 Wargame by Critical Hit Gembloux the Feint is Critical Hit\'s historical module depicting the battle that took place between 13-15 May 1940. The Battle of France has never received a tactical level treatment like Gembloux. The set includes 8 chronological scenarios and a Platoon Leader 2.5 (available for free download or in printed format from CH) campaign featuring the fight for Jandrain. Extensive French language sources were used in the design by Tim Robinson and Pedro Ramis, the designer of the campaign toured the battlefield as part of his research. We feel the core of this module is its scenarios: they are all playable in an evening and a certain \'feel\' has been acheived that makes this a very approachable game for the serious player to play through from start to finish. The battle begins with a clash between French Panhard armored cars and German panzers, and moves to its eventual conclusion at Gembloux during the battle\'s climax. Along the way the gamer will get the feel of the French DLM in open combat against its vaunted foes of the 3rd and 4th Panzer Divisions.A large, 8\' x 10.5\' Belgian Village is provided for new LOS and terrain Fog of War dilemmas for the commanders intrepid enough to stand to a panzer division at the height of its powers. For France! Gembloux the Feint also includes an historical booklet with an original analysis of the battle that includes, let\'s just say not another rendition of the usual, dry \'wargamer\' history. We also look at the the representation of French armor in the system.
