Overview:

The left flank of the British attack into the Reichswald was the responsibility of the 2nd Canadian Division. Two battalions were dispatched to cut the road from Nijmegen east of Wyler. One would continue east, the other would turn back to capture Wyler, thereby opening the road from Nijmegen. The task of taking the town fell to the Calgary Highlanders. Assuming that the preliminary artillery barrage had seriously weakened the Germans, they sent in one company to assault the town from the rear. Forced into a restricted approach due to the flooded nature of the terrain, the Highlanders ran straight into heavy fire from Germans who had recovered from the barrage.
Attacker: Canadian (Company B, Calgary Highlanders Battalion, 2nd Infantry Division)

2015-12-27(D) Michael Dorosh vs Colin Emerson German winInteresting, perhaps looked better on paper than practice. The German RCL managed good kills on the Sexton, and the 120mm MTR finished off the last one. Canadian has a tough row to hoe, but may be a good scenario to handicap a better player. Was nice to play on board 46, and the Terrain SSRs are not onerous.
2015-12-27(A) Colin Emerson vs Michael Dorosh German winPlayed this as the Highlanders are the our hometown unit.
Pretty brutal for the Canadians, advancing across open ground in open sight of 3 mortars and a recoil less rifle. All 3 Sextons were easily eliminated. Advanced the infantry into the forest but then was wary or airbursts from mortars. Next phase would have been advancing across open ground with the Germans dug into the stone buildings. Never got this far as I conceded by turn 4.

Played out much like the battle described in the scenario aftermath. Highlanders had to withdraw and the town was hit with artillery.
