Overview:

The barely tested “T-Patchers” of the US 36th (Texan) Infantry Division were tasked with taking the hilltop village of Altavilla and the hill to the northeast beyond the village, labeled Hill 424 on their maps. The Texans met little resistance advancing to the village. The battalion commander deployed his men on the slopes of Hill 424 with the battalion HQ company occupying the town. Using knowledge of the area, men of the 2nd Battalion, 15th Panzergrenadiers began infiltrating the American positions on the hill throughout Saturday night and into the early morning of the 12th. At the sun's rising, the Germans opened fire on the National Guardsmen deployed on the hill. Artillery pounded the summit and small arms fire seemed to come from all directions.
Attacker: German (Bataillon II, Panzergrenadier-Regiment 15)

2018-05-18(A) Jeff B vs Elmo Menon American winThis one seems quite tough for the Germans. It will take a very finely tuned attack to leave enough force to clear the hills while making an initial move on the village. And I believe their OBA needs to play a very large role, so if you lose that early you'll be SOL. I was about a turn behind on my big push into the village. As it was it came down to the last CCs. I had contended for three buildings, only needing to take one more, but my opponent wisely kept all his units concealed and I came up empty-handed. Losing two of my three tanks within the first couple turns was the nail that sealed the coffin.
