Overview:

The Grossdeutschland Regiment, after some hard fighting and a harder march north, had finally taken the village of Stonne, the pivot of the German flank movement from Sedan. Exhausted, the German infantry were now the target for one of the few determined French counterattacks of the entire campaign. Supported by infantry from the 3rd Motorized Division, an element of the 3rd Armored Division hurled itself at Stonne. It promised to be a hard day for the Grossdeutschland.
Attacker: French (45ème and 49ème Bataillons de Chars de Combat, 3ème Division Cuirassée and 51ème Régiment d'Infanterie, 3ème Division d'Infanterie Motorisée)
Defender: German (Infanterie Regiment "Grossdeutschland"/Bataillon IV, "Grossdeutschland")

2019-07-12(D) Tom Kearney vs Al Saltzman German winNothing went well for the French.
2019-02-15(D) Gordon Jupp vs Neil Brunger German winGreat game, Neil was unfortunate with the Char B's when he lost two to mchanical breakdown...The German 75mm gun had a good run of shots and it just didn't happen for the French, although theyn did take the Chateau :)
2018-08-11(A) Gordon Jupp vs Nick Holmshaw French winExcellent classic scenario, takes all day to play but well worth it!
2012-07-31(A) Shane Pask vs French winWent back and forth - a critical hit on turn 1 gave the Germans a good start but the French still controlled the chalet by turn 6. The French assault on the church was resoundly defeated and all looked lost until the sniper shot a German leader which opened up another building for the French to capture on the last turn.
