Overview:
By the end of November, Major General Clarence Huebner's "Big Red One" had fought all the way through the Huertgen Forest and into the towns along the edge of the Roer river plane. Hopeful for the end of fighting in the Huertgen "Death Factory", the 26th Infantry Regiment coordinated an attack on the medieval town of Merode. A few tanks made it through the forest to support the attack, only to be knocked out by mines. Still, Lt. Col. Derrill Daniel's 2nd Battalion pressed forward against the fresh and motivated fallschirmjager defending Merode.Attacker: American (2nd Battalion, 26th Infantry Regiment)
Defender: German (Fallschirmjäger-Regiment 5)

| 2022-11-17 | (D) Jack Wilson | vs | Dmitry K. | American win | Second beat down in as many days for this one. Although my Germans played a little better, they could not stand up to the massed FP of the Americans. Dmitry threw his whole OB at the sH4 VC hex. He had the first group of stone buildings by T1 and the second group by T2. I was able to hold him up for T3, but he got into the VC building by T4 with a demo charge. He shrewdly sealed off the entry hexes for my T3 reinforcements who then had to enter the board in the APh. Still, the game came down to the last turn, and perhaps if I had not made a couple of crucial blunders, the Germans might have pulled it out. |
| 2022-11-17 | (A) Dmitry Klyuykov | vs | Jack Wilson | American win (VASL Log) | The good availability of the smoke allowed Americans to make a good progress towards the stone VC building during the first 3 turns, so German reinforcements had to join the war in uncomfortable way. Americans took the VC hex blowing the garrison with DC and then defended till the last game turn. Thank you for the great game, Jack! |
| 2022-11-13 | (D) Jack Wilson | vs | Mark D. | American win | Third round game of SK VASL tournament. Mark demonstrated his solid mastery of the game and out maneuvered me at every turn. Well-played game, and I learned a lot. Thanks, Mark! |
