Overview:
Vierville, which lay a few miles inland from Utah Beach, had been liberated on D-Day. On the morning of June 7, elements of the 2nd Battalion, 506th PIR moved out from Vierville towards St. Come du Mont, leaving Vierville virtually unoccupied. The Germans took this opportunity to launch a series of counterattacks on Vierville in hopes of cutting the road to St. Come du Mont. -- This is a great ASL introductory scenario. It involves using Infantry and Leaders counters, no support weaons and no SSRs.Attacker: German (1058th Grenadier Regiment/919th Grenadier Regiment/6th Fallschirmjäger Regiment)
Defender: American (1st Batt. 506th PIR, 101st Airborne)

| 2026-09-22 | (D) Maximiliano Estravis Barcala | vs | NS | American win | First ASL game for the German player. The German troops assaulted the village cautiously, which meant that they didn't have good fire groups and had to pray for some 4+3 to be successful. On the other hand, the open ground to the North was well guarded, and the Americans could only reach the northern edge of the village on Turns 3 and 4. In the end, the Germans didn't have time or firepower to take any building. Conceded on German Turn 5. | ||
