Overview:

The Allied approach to Monte Cassino was agonizingly slow. The commanding heights gave the Germans superb observation and fire positions. In the valleys, small rearguard groups ensured that each hamlet had its price in blood. The Irish Brigade’s attack on Sinagoga was preceded by a full divisional bombardment. Soon after the barrage lifted the “Faughs”, named after their battle cry, “Faugh a’ Ballagh”, stormed the shattered village. The bombardment had knocked out all of the defender’s mines and fixed antitank weapons, as well as spilling mounds of stones from Sinagoga’s buildings into the town’s narrow streets. The German troops and armor, however, were left unaffected. . .
Attacker: British (38th (Irish) Infantry Brigade and 16/5th Lancers Regiment, 26th Armoured brigade, 78th Infantry Division)
Defender: German (Infanterie Division 305)

2024-06-20(A) Craig Renier vs Gary Fortenberry German winDefinitive German win. The Brits made a bit of progress through Turn 2, despite have one leader wound on a rally attempt and one MA malf on a smoke attempt. But, on Turn 3, the German MMG went on a rate tear taking 9 consecutive shots leaving 2 1/2 broken squads after 5 failed MCs. This was followed by a German sniper killing the Brit 9-1 leader. By the end of the RtPh, the broken Brits were eliminated for FTR. With the Germans still solidly placed in the first line of buildings, no losses and little threat from the Brits, the Brits conceded.
