Overview:

By dusk on the 14th, the Germans had established three bridgeheads across the Meuse River. The 15th brought the next stage: the breaking of the last major elements which stood between them and the great plains of France. One point of the last line of defense was the village of Bouvellemont. Here, one regiment of the 15th Division proved too much for the German 1st Infantry Regiment and the attack soon bogged down. With more than half of their officers killed and many of the companies at half strength from fatigue as well as losses, the regimental commander, Colonel Balck, realized that for the attack to continue, he would have to lead the final assault himself.
Attacker: German (Infanterie Regiment 1, Panzer Division 1)
Defender: French (152ème Régiment d'Infanterie, 15ème Division d'Infanterie)

2022-10-16(A) Robert Wiebe vs French French winFrench Lt MTR went on a tear, as did most of Dave's SW. Really good dice rolling on the French part and a layered defence led to an easy French victory. Germans never got close to achieving their victory condition (exit off-board).
2022-09-24(A) Robert Wiebe vs Dave German winThe German objective was to occupy buildings, and the French fire kept missing German troops. This allowed the Germans to occupy the fifth required building, despite last-minute French pressure.
2022-08-14(D) Dwayne Duval vs Kevin Duval German winThe defense finally crumbled at the top of turn 5.
2020-03-07(A) Mark McG vs Simon German winGermans comfortably overwhelmed a forward French defense. OBA observer taken out by sniper and never fired a concentration.
Germans overwhelm right flank and took the building objectives by Turn 6, and completely overrun the French force by Turn 7. Once broken, the French never recovered.
2017-04-20(A) James Lowry vs Tom Arnold French win
