Overview:

The 23rd Panzer Division had totally encircled Boulogne. On the 24th the situation was critical for the defenders, who battled alone in isolated groups. The fortress held out alone, its garrison pushed back two attacks, one at 18:00 and the other at 20:00. The Germans would put the night to good use to carefully plan the next day’s attack. At dawn, the 88mm guns opened fire on the fortress with its ten meter thick walls. But it was the assault pioneers who used explosive charges and formidable flamethrowers who reduced the French positions one by one.
Attacker: German (Elements of Schutzen Regt 2 and of Pionier Bn. 38, 2.Panzer Division and elements of Flak Battery 8. and 2. Panzer Division armor)

2024-03-08(D) fabio aliprandi vs Massimiliano Colosimo German win
2022-08-30(D) Andy Bagley vs Gordon Jupp German winWhat looked at first like it would be a rout, with some good German DRs and awful French ones early on, turned out to be very close when fortune swung back to the French later in the game. The French were fairly quickly pushed back to the victory building, taking casualties on the way, and it looked as though they wouldn't have enough troops to hold it as the Germans swarmed in. But the French tactic of abandoning the ground floor and trying to hold the stairwells almost worked, and might have succeeded but for a CH by the 150mm SPA in the final German PFPh, which eliminated the defenders of one stairwell and allowed the Germans to run upstairs and win. A very interesting city fight, well worth playing.
2020-05-23(A) Alberto González Ramírez vs Javier G. French winJavier made a very good defense. In the last turn it was impossible for me to achieve victory.
