Overview:

While Panzer Lehr was still struggling toward the Clerf River on 18 December, Panzer Division 2 was rolling west across the river through Clervaux. In the van, was the reinforced Aufklärungs Abteilung commanded by Hauptmann von Böhm. Taking the road which skirted to the north of Donnange and Lullange, the Kampfgruppe ran into the first of the Bastogne roadblocks at the Antoniushof farm road junction a task force from CCR/9th Armored Division. The next opposition lay at Baraque d’Allerborn, where a second task force of CCR/9th Armored Division was waiting. Kampfgruppe von Böhm attacked here at dusk and within 15 minutes destroyed 24 Shermans. Kampfgruppe von Böhm had its last encounter with the Bastogne roadblocks at Herbaimont on 20 December, which was manned by an outpost of the 327th Glider Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division.

2022-01-18(A) Kevin Sanders vs Jason Littleton German win
2018-12-18(A) Tom Kearney vs Lindsey Murillo German win2nd edition version. The Germans blasted through the right flank after driving through on objective location. A critical hit versus an American AT gun helped the German cause.
2012-06-03(A) Fred Ingram vs Jeff Coleman German winThere were only 3 other playings on ROAR (with a split record), so balance was not given to either side.

The Germans went up the right flank with the loaded halftracks with the intent of unloading behind a woods mass and then taking them off board for 30 of the 50 VP required for exit. The smoke mortar HT and the armored car which had good smoke went up the middle to lay smoke for the followup troops on turn 2. Since there was not a lot of troops set up forward, it should not have been a huge problem but better safe than sorry (since the AT gun was going to be a real problem). The Pumas went running around trying to entice the AT gun to shoot (but it was actually set up far to the rear). One was immobilized by a SW MTR shot.

The assumption was that all the ways through the center for vehicles were mined.

3 of the turn 2 panthers went up the left flank loaded (over the hedges). to avoid the roadblocks and any potential mines. The infantry and one panther went to the center.

The Americans concede on turn 8 after the village was stormed. No vehicles were effected by mines, so the panthers were able to terrorize the infantry in the buildings.

2012-06-03(D) Jeff Coleman vs Fred Ingram German win
2002-12-30(D) Andy Hershey vs Jim Brackin American win[Imported from ROAR]
