Overview:

The actual battle for Route 71 began at the villages of Sanfatucchio and Pucciarelli where the Irish infantry and Ontario tanks “worked in tandem; the 75-mm guns would blast a house at close range and then the riflemen would storm the building.” Beyond Sanfatucchio, the Germans had created a more formidable defensive position using a solidly built church and advantageous high ground. The church, which is now abandoned, and its graveyard sit on ground that overlooks all approaches. It is not difficult to understand why Sanfatucchio is a battle honour well remembered by veterans of the Ontario Regt.
Attacker: British / Canadian (2nd Battalion, "London Irish Rifles", 78th Infantry Division and 1st Canadian Armoured Brigade)
Defender: German (Grenadier Regiments 754 & 755, Infantry Division 334)

2024-06-25(A) Jonathan Kapleau vs Holland, Donald British / Canadian win
2023-12-10(D) Rob MacGinley vs Ian Willey British / Canadian winUnable to land any godo breaks or survive any MCs so he just cut thru me like butter
I would have enjoyed it more I think as nice village defence where the whole road has to be cleared so the Candians have lots of work to do
2023-03-19(A) Jeff Wright vs Joe Armold British / Canadian win
2022-04-16(A) Simon Staniforth vs British / Canadian winAn enjoyable game, the British have plenty of Infantry units and pushed hard into the village led by the 9-2 and 6-4-8s. A flanking force of 3 squads with the 8-1 and a couple of the Sherman’s headed up to B43 in anticipation of the endgame. The Germans tried to hold the village for perhaps a turn too long and 3 squads including both 5-4-8s were Encircled / broken and forced to surrender in a decisive turn. The respective AFVs didn’t engage until towards the end with the Brits decisively winning that encounter with a KO of one StuG and Recall of the other on an IF shot for no losses of their own. With their AFV cover gone the remaining German infantry was mopped up in T6.
2022-04-02(D) Andy Bagley vs Erik Grande British / Canadian winAnother very enjoyable playing of this excellent scenario, even though I was on the losing side this time. German strategy is all about a skilful fighting withdrawal, and although I got the timing about right, I lost a few too many units in the process.
Mixed fortunes on the dice: good shooting with StuGs and PFs accounted for all three Shermans, but on the other hand my guys just couldn't pass a MC. As the action closed in on the Board 59 chapel and graveyard I still had a small chance, but two MC failures with 8-morale units and a failed s9 Smoke attempt sealed my fate. Great fun though, against a very good opponent.
