Overview:

An ad hoc group of roughly two parachute companies under Lt. Colonel Shanley were stopped cold on their drive toward the bridge at Pont L’Abbe. They fell back to high ground overlooking the Chef-Du-Pont crossing. The key element of the position was a standing patrol in a farm and road junction, blocking the road from the west to the bridge. At dawn on June 8th, the Germans made their most determined effort to take it. . .
Attacker: German (Grenadier-Regiment 1057, Luftlande-Infanterie-Division 91)

2022-07-14(D) Jack Wilson vs Ken Walsh American winMy first time trying ASL. Ken and I chose this one as a good way to ease into the infantry rules. A fun scenario that plays quickly. The Americans begin outnumbered, but MMG and a LtMtr on the hill help slow the German onslaught until reinforcements arrive. The America must be careful of letting units fall prey to capture, thus providing double CVP. Also, if the Germans can slip around either or both flanks and establish a MG nest or two on the ridge line, they can really hinder the oncoming reinforcements giving the main body time to gobble up the VC buildings. Ken played well, but I think this one tilts in favor of the Amis.
2022-03-08(D) David Garvin vs Loic Gourdon German winCame to the final turn. Loic pressed in and won on a CVP cap. Great battle!
2022-03-03(A) Paul Legg vs John Kennedy German winHeroes 2022 - Friendly
2022-02-19(A) Tom Harrington vs Teddy B American winRusty (me) German assault laden with deployment mistakes, with a strong push on turn 6, thoroughly repelled by an fluid American defense with exceptional die rolls.
2022-01-27(A) Jeff B vs Bronson Banhart German winGermans approached fairly typically from the south central. Americans used their 8-0 to spot for their mortar fire to keep them safe. German 8-0, helping tote their own mortar, got brained Turn 2 by the sniper. Turn 3 saw the Americans lose their 9-1 and a squad to NQ. But the German 9-1 was lost as well (cc?), leaving the Germans with only one leader. Thankfully their push up the middle was proving successful however, and they were already starting to sweep into the village from the south. By Turn 4 they had captured all the buildings, the American spotter was brained by the sniper, and reinforcements were nowhere to be seen. Despite receiving them one turn earlier in the re-issue, late-arriving Americans is still too much of a hurdle to overcome. Once the last Americans who had been holding out around the village went berserk and were mowed down by numerous German guns, it was easy enough to meet the Americans up in the hills and stimy their approach.
