Overview:
The attack of the 101st Airborne Division on June 13th happened to coincide with the violent enemy reaction out of Carentan. Soldiers of the 506th Infantry Regiment started forward but soon found themselves intermingled with German columns, including tanks and Fallshirmjagers from the 6th Parachute Regiment. The 506th found itself in the toughest spot it had ever been in and thoughts of attack soon shifted to efforts to improvise a defense.Attacker: German (SS) (6th Parachute Regiment, 17th SS Panzergrenadier Division and 17th SS Panzer Battalion)
Defender: American (506th Parachute Regiment)

| 2025-04-28 | (A) Craig Renier | vs | Bill Slunt | American win | Trying to be clever, the designer came up with a unique set up/start sequence which is simply all together too random. In addition, the majority of the German firepower is in the AFVs. Before Turn 2 had ended, I had lost 75% of that firepower with a malf'd gun, wrecked AFV, and depleted ammo. Facing them the Americans have overwhelming inherent firepower. Despite that, the Germans were able to take it to the final turn, but only because the German average DR was 6.5 vs the American 7.3. For the second half, the disparity was significantly greater - approx 6.0 vs 8.0. I not only couldn't recommend this scenario, I would try to dissuade anyone from playing it. | ||
| 2025-04-28 | (D) Mark Thompson | vs | Stephen Stewart (Germans) | German (SS) win | The Americans set-up first, Germans moved first. Germans skillfully switched back/forth from offense and defense and stymied American attempts to take the hill, their only realistic chance reaching the VC's with German AFV's maintaining a respectable distance. For a brief moment, victory seemed possible when a dashing HS survived multiple shots in its desperate attempt to reach the relatively undefended hill (and vulnerable Marder there), but got smoked by a 4 -4 long range shot, and that was that! Good game, questionable scenario. | ||

| 2025-04-10 | (A) Jim Liang | vs | Peter Palmer | American win (VASL Log) | Close Assault 2025 Mini Tourney, Round 3 - Americans setup second and moved first. I lost two AFVs within first turn and was behind on CVP for rest of game, which put the Americans in the driver's seat. | ||
