2023-04-19(D) Scott Sherer vs Jeff B German winI went with the two 7-morale US infantry groups and the AFV group with the GMC. I thought the morale boost was more important than the SW's I was giving up (especially since I assumed I would be occupying stone buildings exclusively so didn't think the bazookas would be particularly useful). This is a pretty static defense for the Americans, and the Germans ground forward into the village. Jeff's smoke capabilities proved effective, and he kept the battlefield shrouded in smoke. My FB took out one of his tanks, but he managed to take both of mine out with his remaining AFV's, including my GMC on an AFPh shot with an incredibly sneaky LOS and a roll of (1,2) to send it to Valhalla. After that, the combination of smoke and complete armor supremacy allowed the Germans to grind their way to victory. Decent little scenario from a group I had never heard from until Scenario Archive randomly picked this one for our next game.
2023-03-23(A) Jeff B vs Scott Sherer German winI enshrouded the two southern defenders in the woods with some, only to surprisingly find out they were both dummies. This allowed me to send a big stack through the woods in the far south, and another up the gut through the first set of stone buildings. Turn 2 saw the Germans suffer a aquad's worth of casualties, as well as another 1.5 squads ELRing, as my attack up the middle and in the south intensified. But it took most of the American forces's muscle to do it, and almost all were unconcealed. Turn 3 was no less deadly as the American plane arrived, with the StuG being promptly knocked out and another 1.5 squads eliminated. The Americans took their first casualties in the form of two HS. The motar kept the middle of the road enshrouded in smoke. Progress was slow-going however, with only five buildings taken at this point. But Turn 4 saw the breakthrough the Germans needed. While losing only a squad, they knocked out both tanks, a HT, a 9-1, and two squads. The building count jumped to 9, and with three mobile AFVs to the Americans' zero (and no bazookas), the advantage would switch to the Germans. Still it would be tough uprooting the rest of the American force from all the stone buildings. Turn 5 saw the Germans bring their superiority to bear, taking 7 buildings north of the road and 7 south, while also getting into the ground level of the church (with Americans on both upper levels yet). But these would prove unnecessary to eliminate, as the Germans were able to sneak a crew and HS into the American rear to capture two more buildings, while another was guaranteed to fall with all broken Americans. A decent little scenario that will have action from start to finish.
