Overview:

In the opening moves of the Ardennes offensive it would be imperative for Dietrich's 6th SS Panzer Armee to make big gains early. Unfortunately, this would mean driving the 1st SS and 12th SS Panzer Divisions and the 277 Volksgrenadiers Division through some of the roughest terrain in the Ardennes. The American 2nd and 99th Infantry Divisions, one tired and battered, the other inexperienced, would take the brunt of the German attack along the Elsenborn ridge. Elements of these two divisions entrenched in the twin villages of Rocherath-Krikelt, and in the nearby village of Wirtzfeld, would see almost constant action throughout the first week of Wacht am Rhein.
Attacker: German (SS) (SS-Panzer-Division 12 "Hitlerjugend")
Defender: American (1st Battalion, 38th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Infantry Division and 644th Tank Destroyer Battalion with 741st Tank Battalion)

2021-03-30(A) X von Marwitz vs David Wallace American winBeefy 'Battle of the Bulge' scenario with lots of toys and a truly menacing American 150mm OBA.

2020-12-22(D) Will Willow vs D. Norko German (SS) winUS never got OBA. US armor gone by mid game. By German 7 the buildings were taken.
2018-11-30(D) Jeff B vs Phil Wentworth American winBig, fun scenario. Americans stripped their light AFVs for some extra SWs, though one of the crews was mowed down almost immediately. The TDs tried to maintain concealment as long as possible, though one was lost early after being stunned. Turn 3 was a big turn for the defense as the AT gun knocked out a Panther and two HTs. Turn 4 was another brutal turn as the Germans lost three squads and two HTs to snipers. At this point there was no way they could win by the exit VC and all their infantry was committed to the southern woods so it would be extremely hard to go for the town so they called it a day.
2018-05-07(A) Gordon Jupp vs Simon Church German (SS) winBit of a grind this one, early losses meant I was forced into the building capture VC, which I succeeded in doing...
2018-03-19(A) Michael Rodgers vs Magnus Rimvall German (SS) winI won with a German exit strategy and a lot of luck.
