Overview:

Having liberated Eindhoven the previous day, the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment moved out to the east toward Helmond. Easy Company led the reconnaissance, riding on Cromwells of the King's Royal Hussars. Three miles east of Eindhoven, after passing through the small town of Nuenen, someone yelled "Kraut tanks!" A massed armored assault by Panzer-Brigade 107 had run directly into the Allied team. As the panzers deployed with infantry behind them, the men of Easy Company took cover in the irrigation ditches crisscrossing the nearby fields while the Cromwells moved into combat.
Attacker: German (Panzer-Brigade 107)
Defender: British / American (15/19 King's Royal Hussars and 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division)

2022-06-16(A) Sam Tyson vs Matt Evans German winThe Germans outflanked the Allies, and the Cromwells were picked off one by one. The American 9-2 was wounded by the Sniper early, and the US infantry was bottled up in the area between the boards. The German halftracks were able to unload their infantry and HMGs, and really slow down the retreat.

In the end, there was not enough Allied infantry left to fight for the village, and the Germans cleaned up the town.
2021-02-08(A) B-E Karlsson vs American British / American win
2020-09-16(D) Gordon Jupp vs Neil Brunger British / American winCracking game ! Totally fluid and confusing British tanks managed to survive the first two turns with motion and smoke mortars and then kept moving to threaten Panther flanks, meanwhile paras retreated onto village and were able to hold off the German attacks. Well worth playing if you like the unexpected!
2020-03-23(D) patrick palma vs John Garlic German win
2018-12-18(D) Stephen dedier vs Johnston, Mike German winAfter a good start where I managed to save 5 Cromwells from the initial onslaught and Mike malfed the MA on one Panther everything went downhill.

Mike foze my Baz squad with the malfed Panther so he could move up infantry. Three shots, turret hit front, turret hit front, X out the Baz losing the squad to massive fire from the units that surrounded it after that.
My Other Cromwells suffered from unlikly hits twice needing DR of <=3 for the hit and getting it. Meanwhile i fired a dud on a halftrack hit and malfed one of the MA. I lost all my armor by 3rd turn and had only killed the 2 HMG HT's. After that it was just a matter of time as the brave para's were squeezed back by overwhelming opposition.
