2021-02-22(D) Ian Morris vs Martin Mayers German winVery good campaign game, but was unbalanced by Martin rolling a 1 to finish the second and third scenarios on turn 5.
2019-06-10(A) Alberto González Ramírez vs Javier G. American winVery hard for the USA to pass the PHD. Once it was passed, the advance was easier.
2019-02-12(D) Chuck Dye vs Kevin Killeen American win
2018-03-25(A) patrick palma vs Jim Traver German win
2017-09-03(D) jon smith vs american German winPlayed 2 campaign turns.. yanks tried a push centre right and got stopped short of the draw but did take the bridge and cleared wire etc. CG2 yanks went hard for bridge rush, 4 tanks with most of thei rinfantry in support along with 2 OBA including a creeping barrage of smoke... they got mowed down as soon as smoke cleared, germans lost a mortar to malfunction and the 75mm to a critical hit from HE round.... yanks lost lots of infantry getting across bridge after second german mortar and the german 9-2 leader directing HMG fire on a ROF tear. Wasn't close but was fun enough. Don't think the campaign is well balanced at all... too easy for germans. IMHO, if germans don't defend the town and just defend gully from the start then hard work for yanks. Would recommend germans are forced to defend the town with a considerable force.
