Overview:

Following its crossing of the Moselle, the US XII Corps desperately tried to enlarge its bridgehead. The German commander of the 3rd Panzer Grenadier Regiment was just as desperate to hurl the Americans back across the river. The Germans jumped off first before dawn on 14 September, hitting the American lines at Sainte Genevieve and routing a company from the 317th Infantry Regiment. Continuing the attack, the Germans rolled on to the next town, Loisy, where elements of the 318th Infantry Regiment were covering a key crossroads that provided access to the rear area of the 80th Infantry Division.
Attacker: German (Elements 3rd Panzer Grenadier Regiment)

2020-05-21(D) X von Marwitz vs Lars-Peder Jensen American winThe Germans have to root out a US infantry force supported by a 105mm ART piece from a village and overcome the American firepower quickly. Both, the Americans and the Germans have a 9-2 at hand, the Germans also a Hero on top. And - last but not least - a double-flame throwing SPW 251/10. The scenario is short with 5.5 Turns, so the Germans have no time to lose.

ROAR has this pro German but there are not that many playings recorded yet. Nevertheless, I think, that this impression is correct.

In our game, the Flamm-Halftrack X'ed out on the first shot (a classic...) and of course, this makes a BIG difference. Still, it was not trivial to keep the Germans from closing in, but after the US 9-2 plus 667+HMG found range and ROF, I was able to break up the attack and keep one part of the village in American hands.

It was interesting to play and due to the Gun and the Flamm-Halftrack, you have toys to mess around with. But had the Halftrack performed better, then it would have been tough for the Americans.
