I won it at the second attempt, here's an AAR I posted about it-

Introduced with the Feb 4th 2023 update, it's a Story-only scen (not available in Skirmish), and the human player can only be British.
I liked it, it's small, fast and violent, and the victory conditions are refreshingly simple, namely kill all 9 static German trucks within 20 turns or lose.
I won with literally the last shot of the game..:)

PIC 1: I elect to send my entire force of 6 jeeps to deal with the 6x trucks circled red at top right, then after dealing with them I plan to cross the map to dish out the same punishment to the remaining 3x trucks (circled left) parked near the chateau on left-

PIC 2: after racing down the road I screech my jeeps to a halt (wheels can't cross hedges) and disgorge my men who fan out and go into a feeding frenzy among the trucks, supported by the withering fire of the jeeps, each of which mounts a pair of twin MG's and a 50-cal.

PiC 3: About 5 German infantry squads put in a counterattack but were easily cut down as they advanced, and a 20mm flak gun got an AT charge in its lap.
All 6 enemy trucks are burning, so now I send my jeeps to collect the infantry for the push on the chateau with only 8 turns left-

PIC 4: I send my jeeps at top speed along the green arrows and hurl them full tilt into several German squads that are guarding the 3 remaining trucks, there are only 3 turns left and I can't p*ssyfoot around-

PIC 5: Some of my jeeps are wiped out but I've dismounted the infantry who now wade into the trucks throwing AT charges like crazy.
There's just one turn left to kill the final truck (circled), people are on the pitch, they think it's all over!-

Pic 6: It is now, an AT charge trashes the last truck and triggers a win..:)

Eye candy- each SAS jeep is bristling with twin MG and 50-cal firepower-
