2022-03-29(A) David Garvin vs Loic Gourdon American winI was barely collecting CVPs, but as luck would have it, I captured 2 German squads to bring my count to a potential 12. I then ran away, forcing the Germans to close up to get more CVPs for them. A fateful shot induced a 2 KIA on the advancing US forces, sealing the victory for me.
2022-03-03(D) Jeff B vs Bronson Banhart German winGermans mostly hid from the Americans, but one of those deadly mortars managed a sneaky shot to kill a HS. Turn 4 the Germans started to bleed HS as they fell trying to keep the Americans from entering the woods too quickly, but Turn 6 saw them dish a little punishment back as the Americans tested their mettle against the German MG kill stack. The next couple turns saw more of the same, with first a 1KIA killing an 8-1 and breaking two squads, then a 2KIA killing two squads and breaking another. The Americans were able to retake the lead over the last couple turns, finally hitting 12 CVP, but having lost 10 of their own prevented a victory. The limited movement and disallowance of self-breaking makes this one extremely tough for the Germans, especially if the Americans take some prisoners.
2021-03-05(D) Dave Mareske vs Craig Renier American win
2021-03-05(A) Craig Renier vs Dave Mareske American winThe American assault started out well by breaking one squad with mortar fire and a half squad manning the German HMG. The Americans advanced slowly using the advantage of time. The Germans slowly withdrew to building 24V4/U4, unable to withdraw with the American overwatch in Building 1X2. When the American mortars broke and the 9-2 leader, HS, and MMG moved downstairs, the Germans made a dash for the board edge. However, the Americans were able to exact enough casualties that the Germans had to return or accept a loss. With enough CVPs for the win, the Americans fell back and the German conceded.
2021-03-02(A) Craig Renier vs Vilis Pavulans American winThe American player made a number of significant mistakes early on which resulted in early American casualties. Struggling from behind, the American advance was able to make some gains, but the Germans began a quick withdrawal leaving a few broken squads behind. However, after a late review of the VCs, the German player realized he left too many units behind and reversed course. The Americans were able to maneuver into good position causing enough German casualties leaving the German player with little choice but to concede.
