Overview:

Colonel Reuben Tucker personally appealed to General Gavin to allow his 504th Regiment to attack Cheneux. Friendly civilians had reported a large column of German vehicles, including tanks, encamped there. Normally an American infantry regiment would request a battalion of armor for support before making such an assault, but Colonel Tucker had an ace up his sleeve. His men had recently captured a whole truckload of panzerfausts, had practiced with them, and now were ready to use them on the enemy. Combined with the early arrival of the latest model of bazooka, Tucker figured his force was strong enough to carry out the assault alone.
Attacker: American (1st and 3rd Battalions, 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division)
Defender: German (SS) (SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 2, SS-Panzer-Division 1 "Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler")

2025-04-16(D) Will Willow vs Randy Shurtz German (SS) winThe dicebot gave me this one.
2024-11-29(A) Dave B vs Joseph L DiCamillo American winThe Americans won by sending a task force around the American right flank of the German position, and capturing the wooden building in the rear by a coup de main. But not before a hellacious slugfest played out in the village, which saw, among other things, the Wirbelwind Flakpanzer roll 6-6 on its first IFE shot (subsequently repaired in very next RPh), a BAZ44 taking out the Stug III situated on the hill on the American right flank, and a single German sniper attack striking Tucker's task force (10-2, 7-4-7 x 3) in one stack, rolling 1-2-2-2 for random selection, wounding Tucker and halving two already broken 7-4-7 squads!
