Overview:

Despite numerous pleas from his field commanders, Hitler insisted that the main thrust of the Ardennes offensive not be diminished just to shore up the flanks. This General Brandenberger’s 7th Army, charged with protecting the southern flank as the panzers advanced in the center, contained only one Fallschirmjager division and three Volksgrenadier divisions. The 352nd Volksgrenadier Division lacked training, veteran non-coms, or motorized transport. On December 16th it crossed the Our River in front of the US 109th Infantry Regiment and two field artillery battalions situated on Skyline Drive. . .
Attacker: German (915th Volksgrenadier Regiment, 352nd Volksgrenadier Division)
Defender: American (107th and 108th Field Artillery Battalions, 28th Infantry Division)

2023-04-29(A) Andreas R vs JennyD American win
2022-11-15(D) Jack Wilson vs Bob T. German winGreat game that came down to the last turn. The Germans spent two fire phases to break all three of my gun crews. who all refused to self-rally.

Then he rushed the guns on turn 7. I threw up a blizzard of bullets and residuals. KIA'd one, broke two, pinned three, but he had four squads make through the hail of gunfire and captured the defenseless guns on the last advance phase.

Another fun VASL game.
2022-11-12(D) Dmitry Klyuykov vs Mark D American win

(VASL Log)		Great tense game in Round 1 Stew's mini-tournament. Americans got two guns malfunctioned while blazing, but were able to hold the ground thanks to very lucky KIAs in the endspiel.
2022-08-06(D) Dmitry Klyuykov vs Slava Zipunov American win

(VASL Log)		Second re-learning ASL game.
2022-07-04(A) Bob McKenna vs Robert Kroczynski American winGermans split forces and captured gun or left and right by Turn 5. Americans degraded the strength of the attackers.
