Overview:

Rommel’s 7th Panzer Division had established a small bridgehead across the Somme, but the construction of a pontoon bridge was prevented by interdicting fire from the nearby town of Hangest. . . Self-propelled howitzers were brought forward to bombard the defenders, and an assault by motorcycle infantry was launched. The attackers slowly fought their way into Hangest, but the colonial infantry resisted fiercely even in the face of point-blank fire from the SP guns. . .
Attacker: German (Kradschützen Bataillon 7 / sIG Kompanie 705)

2020-11-13(D) O Ramaille vs Macari Samuel French winThe French fortified the central building which resisted the full battle. The Germans assault was slowed by French determination and some accurate shots that routed or pinned most of the advancing infantry. The assault guns helped a bit in the last turns to fix French defenders but one was recalled and another destroyed in CC. With 9 buildings controlled, it was not enough. The French colonial troops won.
2020-11-10(A) Christopher Graff vs Stephen Solomon French winI made my move too late as the Germans, inflicting lots of French casualties but unfortunately not enough to capture all the required buildings.
