Overview:

The final weeks of the war in Europe saw deep penetrations by the forces of General Alexander Patch’s Seventh Army, which rolled over most resistance in its path. Crossing the Neckar River proved to be one of the first true obstacles encountered by the American 100th Division. As German artillery fire from the eastern bank harassed the crossing, Armeekorps XIII commander Max Bork built a scratch kampfgruppe around remnants of SS-Panzergrenadier-Division 17 and ordered it to counterattack through the rubbled streets before the “Century Men” could consolidate their bridgehead.
Attacker: German (Kampfgruppe von Bodenhausen)
Defender: American (398th Infantry Regiment, 100th Infantry Division)

2023-01-13(A) Mark Oakley vs Vincent at WO American winI tried for the three buildings on the right. It came down to the last turn's CC roll, but was unable to clear the Americans from the buildings.
2021-01-10(D) Rob MacGinley vs James Short German winA very effective and slow push up the left flank - slowly cracking open the defence
2020-08-06(D) Andy Bagley vs Neil Brunger American winGreat scenario with lots of options. Germans tried the sewer approach to avoid my fire lanes but had limited success - failed several emergence dr's and a squad that could have made a difference got lost. My strategy as the Americans was to concede building D2 (just lightly defended but held him up), and hold the other three factories, including packing reinforcements in and around building N2. It worked - building D2 duly fell but it was then too late for the Germans to move enough forces across towards the others.
