2024-04-05(D) Mark Thompson vs Steve Cook (American) German winThe Germans ran a Trench line on the South edge of Hill 783, anchored on the left in J4 by an ATG/MMG and right in N5 by an ATG/HMG/9-1, with two sets of 467s/LMGs interspersed in-between. The right anchor doubled as a Bunker, with the CA facing M6/M5 to stave off the expected late game final assault. Fire from these positions eliminated 1/4 of the American infantry and 4 tanks by German Turn 3, with another Shocked. More than a bit of an embarrassment of DR riches for the Germans, who had only 2 fire attacks with the ATGs and MGs that DID NOT obtain ROF. Further, even without APCR, the ATG managed Turret hits at tanks behind the F7-I9 wall and low enough TK DRs. One ATG crew broke, but bounced right back with its Fanatic status…. In short, the DRs were King (and Kong) for the Germans, but IMHO this is a tough one for the Americans, even in the face of average German DRs. Might be better as a meeting engagement, with most of the German infantry (and MGs) having an initial set-up on the North slope of the hill complex.
2022-04-21(A) Alex Ashton vs Martin Barker American winAmericans were able to storm the hill in the last two turns.
Excellent scenario
2022-01-16(A) Andy Goldin vs Glen MacDermid German winIt took me a while to figure out that Glen chose a 'reverse slope' defense. While that granted me (largely) freedom of movement to the hill, I ran into a buzzsaw once I got there. Cautious play resulted in the loss of only one tank but my infantry had a heck of a time dealing with his MG point blank fire. Glen's sniper KIA'd two of my leaders, making it tough for me to rally troops and send them back up the hill. I couldn't clear the bunker at 2-1 odds in CC, which left me vulnerable to his reserve hiding in the woods behind the crest. In the end, I got my tanks and some infantry to the hilltop but couldn't clear it in time. German win.
2021-10-11(D) Macari Samuel vs hardrada American winFirst shot with the first Gun : DR12, breakdown. First shot with the second Gun : DR12, breakdown.
Game over.
2021-05-22(A) Michael Rodgers vs Greg Barsness German winAmericans lost early on the CVP cap.
