Overview:

During the night of 5 August, the KPA 4th Guards Seoul Division made its initial assault into the “Naktong Bulge”. The North Koreans pressed forward nearly two miles before the 34th’s commander, Colonel Charles Beauchamp, realized what was happening and ordered the 1st Battalion, under Lt. Col. Harold “Red” Ayres, to counterattack and restore the regiment’s position. The next morning, Ayres led C Company forward, where they encountered North Korean positions in the vicinity of Soesil village. Col. Ayres ordered C Company to seize a series of hills occupied by the KPA northwest of Soesil while he directed 60mm mortar fire in support. C Company was forced to break off the attack and fall back. The remnants took refuge in an abandoned grist mill while Col. Ayres and his staff frantically rushed back on foot to bring up the rest of the battalion. The company fought tenaciously in and around the grist mill, utilizing the .50-cal machine gun mounted on a nearby wreck to spray the surrounding hills.
Attacker: North Korean (3rd Battalion,16th Infantry Regiment, 4th Guards Seoul Division)

2024-10-08(D) John Garlic vs Philippe Briaux American winVery tough scenario for the North Koreans. My Americans hung back and cycled from the stone building to the fixed .50 cal, and slowly decimated the North Koreans as they approached over the hill next to the objective.

2023-05-06(A) Eric Partizan Eric vs American win
2020-06-02(A) Dave Mareske vs Dennis Dowd North Korean winA neat little scenario that could be very dicey. The HMG was unable do any damage to a North Korean squad on the hill so routing units became problematic and then the Americans were overrun. Only the 9-1 leader was manning the HMG at the end and the 7-0 jumped him in CC and rolled a "2" sealing the victory for the NK.
