Overview:

The American 95th Infantry Division, upon being relieved from its position at Metz, was tasked with making the first crossing of the Saar River. From 25-28 November, the division made headway against the German defense which, though thin spread, was greatly aided by muddy roads, dense fog, and swollen streams. At nightfall on the 28th, the 95th was less than five miles from the Saar. The following morning the 1st Battalion of the 377th Regiment was ordered to take the village of St. Barbara, located on a strategically important spur overlooking the Saar.
Attacker: American (1st Battalion, 377th Infantry Regiment, 95th Infantry Division and 718th Tank Battalion)
Defender: German (Kampfgruppe Muehlen, Panzer-Division 21)

2022-07-26(A) Scott Fischbein vs Jim B American winThis is a fun scenario, though pretty unbalanced. Even with the balance, Jim's Germans were pretty quickly overwhelmed after missing a few key PSK shots - I was able to maneuver most of my units into the center of the hilltop village. His Panther took out most of my tanks, but by then the units were firmly in place, with one tank, an AT gun, and a HT occupying the central part of the hilltop. Jim conceded on turn 5 without enough units to penetrate the American defense. It's too bad this scenario isn't a bit more balanced, since it's a fun combination of combined arms maneuvering for both sides. I would play it again and give a newer player the Americans as it's a good scenario for learning how to maneuver vehicles.

2018-11-11(D) Vic Lauterbach vs JM German winIn a game full of ASL craziness, the Germans (w/ balance) manged to eke out a win because the US 8-1 went berserk and changed a broken 6-6-7 and 3-4-6 rendering them unable to advance into N8. Two other squads were locked in Melee in N6 leaving just the US 7-0 and one squad in N7. Along the way, each HIP PSK team got a Sherman before being overwhelmed, a disrupted German squad surrendered to the pinned US 9-2, neither sniper ever hit anything, and AAMG fire broke three MMC before they could fire a BAZ. We agreed that using the 57L's and HT MG's aggressively could have tipped this one, and that one extra PzIVJ doesn't help much against squads in stone buildings. All in all, a very good game.
2018-02-10(A) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best American winVery mentally challenging game. My Americans stormed along the south edge and got a foothold in the N Row and hung on for dear life as Dan's Grenadiers and Panther nearly took the win on the last Close Combat. Very intense scenario!
