2020-08-03(A) Dave Mareske vs Dennis Dowd American winA critical hit on the German 150 paved the way for the Americans to cross the bridge with very little resistance. The American tanks were unhindered mostly, with the infantry able to pin down the German infantry. Dennis set up so that he could get across the stream on turn one. Americans came up the center for the most part.

2017-10-06(D) Michael Rodgers vs Alan Lipka German win
2017-08-17(D) Jeff B vs Magnus Rimvall German winThe Germans lightly protected each of the flanks and the central building clusters on the hill; everyone else (including the tank) was at the bridge ready to make it across to the hills. This they managed to do, but mistakenly (or was it?)left the middle open for an aggressive American push across themselves. Thus brutal close quarter fighting was already in progress in the victory area by Turn 3. It was simply a matter of who got luckiest at that point. By Turn 4 all but one American half squad was across the stream. By the end of the turn all American units on that side were broken. Game over.
