Overview:

The battle for Aachen had been raging for two days. A complicated series of maneuvers designed to encircle the city from both the north and south had been occupying the American command. These few units committed to the frontal assault on Aachen had some tough going. Not only were the Aachen defenders numerically superior, but they were fighting on their home soil for one of the cherished Nazi symbols: Aachen, home of the First Reich.
Attacker: American (3rd Battalion, 26th Infantry Regiment)

2022-03-09(A) Craig Renier vs Eric American winThis was a continuation of refresher games with a returning ASL player. The German defense was ably set up with the HMG on the German right defending the approach from the woods while also covering a number of hexes on the left. The Americans focused their attack on the German left with MMG support in the center and covering forces on the right. Accurate German defensive fire broke the American 9-2 and two MMCs with a MMG, seriously hampering the attack. But when the Germans attempted a subsequent withdrawal to a second line of defense, they suffered heavy losses. The Americans quickly rallied and made slow but steady progress across the open ground, using as much smoke as possible. The attack was aided by ineffective German defensive fire. Once the American forces crossed the open ground, they were able to put their superior fire power to use with few places for the Germans to skulk. There was faint hope to hold off the onslaught, but after two more German MMCs and a leader broke, all hope was lost and the German player conceded.
