Overview:

By December 19th, Kampfgruppe Peiper had begun to face ever increasing resistance, and it had nearly reached the apogee of its penetration into American lines. Peiper's single-minded goal was to push through to the Meuse River. Unfortunately, Volksgrenadier Division 12 to the north and his own division's Kampfgruppe Hansen to the south had failed in their role of maintaining flank security. His kampfgruppe found itself isolated with the American 117th Infantry Regiment pushed the small German security detachment out of Stavelot. SS-Panzer Division 1 tasked the followup unit, Kampfgruppe Sandig, with retaking Stavelot. Along with armored elements belonging to Peiper -- including Tiger 222 -- KG Sandig attacked towards the Stavelot bridge late that afternoon.
Attacker: German (SS) (Kampfgruppe Sandig, supported by 7. SS-Panzer Kompanie, SS-Panzer Regiment 1 and 2. SS-Panzer Kompanie, Schwere SS-Panzer Abteilung 501)

2024-04-07(D) Ben B vs German (SS) American winThis scenario feels pretty unbalanced towards the Americans. Unless the Germans send infantry ahead to search through all of the concealment terrain around the road entry hexes, Americans can ambush the German tanks as soon as they enter the board (which is how I won this game). HIP HSs with BAZ44s took two of the German tanks out and the AT gun popped the third. My opponent conceded shortly after we realized how unlikely it was for him to get his infantry across the river.
2022-01-31(A) Jeff B vs Greg QuirogaD German (SS) win1.5 hrsGreg and I both had a little free time and played a pickup game on VASL. He selected this, as all he said he owned was old stuff and mostly played CGs. To say this one is rough for the Germans would be an understatement. 5 Turns to cross a bridge and grab as many buildings as possible. If they don't get smoke it's nigh impossible; even with it they'll have it rough as the Americans have some HIP tricks up their sleeves. Greg tested my men's mettle by trying to run some infantry across early. 1.5 squads of dead Germans later and he grew a bit more cautious. After smoking in my MG nest he tried crossing again with tank support. Unfortunately for him the road across the bridge was lined with AT mines and the Tiger and a Panther were stopped in their tracks, The infantry tried to continue to push on alone, but after the 9-1 pinned and his followers busted up he called it a day after 2.5 Turns.
