Overview:

At 0525 on December 16th, an intense German artillery barrage commenced against U.S. forces astride Route N16, “Skyline Drive”, one of only a few paved roads in the Ardennes. A thick fog obscured anything beyond a few hundred yards and as the morning progressed the Americans began to hear Germans bypassing their positions to the north and south. These were units of the 77th Grenadier Regiment which were on the move to seize the bridge at Clervaux. Around 0730 the fog began to lift and shortly thereafter the Grenadiers attacked Hosingen in an effort to take control of the vital roads leading west. . .
Attacker: German (II Batt., 77th Regiment, 26th Volksgrenadier Division)
Defender: American (K and M Co., 3rd Batt., 110th Regiment and 103rd Engineer Combat Batt.)

2025-11-19(A) Ian Fox vs Rich Pito German winThe Germans sent most of their forces down the flanks. On the left they were slowed significantly by the American FT squads, eventually tying them up in an extended Melee. On the right they almost broke through, exiting 9 VPs despite withering HMG fire. It came down to the last squads on the left trying to make it past a 3 squad+HMG+10-2 leader kill stack at point blank range in the open. First squad vanished after a (predictable) KIA result. Second squad survived successive K/3 and 4MC checks without pinning with a 3 and then a 2, giving the Germans the win. Dice gods had their finger on the scale for this one!
