Overview:

The battle for Aachen, the city of Charlemagne and the First Reich, had started two days earlier. American High Command had initiated a complicated series of maneuvers outside the city designed to isolate Aachen from the north and the south in a concentric attack encircling the city. The commanding generals had not given much thought to the units that were to frontally assault the city to keep the Germans’ attention other than to tell them to pin the Germans in place. Thus it was that these few American units faced some tough going. Not only were the defenders numerically superior, but they were fighting on home soil for one of the cherished Nazi symbols of power.
Attacker: American (3rd Battalion, 26th Infantry, 1st Infantry Division)
Defender: German (Volksgrenadier-Regiment 404, Volksgrenadier-Division 246)

2020-08-03(A) Alberto González Ramírez vs Javier G. American winTo be honest, Javier had bad luck.
His rolls were rarely less than 7.
2020-05-22(D) Richard Jenulis vs Richard King German winGermans went with option 2 and kept the Americans guessing as long as I could. Game went down to the last CC. VASL (game 3)
2019-06-21(D) Simon Staniforth vs German win
2019-04-11(D) Martí Cabré vs Sandro Coriasco German winI took the Fortifications and put the best units behind and all the conscripts to act as speed bumps. The Americans took a dozen squads prisoner and four of the last row buildings but in the last two turns they just broke when launching against the German positions. It was a little dicey, and the Germans have little to say beyond initial setup.
2019-02-27(D) Andy Beaton vs Mark Watson American winI took the SS reinforcements, but they wrecked the HMG I gave them and spent the rest of the game in CC with American berserkers. Otherwise, I never had enough troops to do more than break a couple of American squads while the rest swarmed around me. It felt a bit tough on the Germans to me.
