Overview:

Four days into the battle, the 14th Armored Division, supported by infantry from two battalions of the 315th Infantry Regiment, had managed to temporarily halt the momentum of Panzer-Korps XXXIX. Switching to the offensive, American tankers sought to reclaim Hatten and Rittershoffen, the majority of which remained in German hands. Combat Command R was assigned the task of pushing the Germans out of the southern section of Hatten, which included the key locations of the railway station, the cemetery, and the southeast road out of Hatten. Elements of Panzergrenadier-Division 25 had been rigorously defending this piece of terrain for several days. They would not be easily dislodged.

2020-04-02(A) Jeff B vs Magnus Rimvall American winNot a lot of time in this one, so the Americans must use the early smoke and dawn LV to close in quickly. I sent a couple of my tanks to the eastern graveyard along with my HTs, which I would quickly strip of their 3 MGs and BAZ. I didn't know if they would be able to provide much help being so far away, but they proved instrumental in my endgame. Magnus surprised me by having a first line defense consisting mainly of dummies, and by the end of Turn 2 I was already pushing the VC perimeter. Turn 3 saw me lose a tank to a sneaky long PSK shot, malf another's MA, and forget to reposition one tank in the graveyard. Thankfully I blazed up a Panther with a BAZ, but his remaining tank would be difficult to deal with in such a short time. Next turn I got lucky again with a BAZ, but only after losing another one of mine (despite being HD). Without any tanks to protect them, and with a lot of American firepower in their faces, the Germans crumpled by the end of the turn.
2020-02-23(A) Christian Knudsen vs Neil Andrews American winNeil conceded after his Turn 2 when we realized that we both had completely forgotten about his reinforcing tanks. I think I did a bit better managing the Americans with all their tools this time, but I still need to remember about doing smoke first in the DFPh too, and that BAZ have WP in 45, and that I have WP infantry smoke too! I'm not sure why I find the Americans so hard to drive in offense, but I'll get it one of these days...
2019-12-04(D) Daniel Alm vs Peter Lindahl American winGermans were looking like winners until turn 3. Then the American assault came crashing in on both sides of the frontline. In the end the Germans conceded victory at end of turn 4, with only one AFV (malf MA), a broken crew and a broken squad left.
2019-05-27(D) Raoul Duke vs CH American winSet up well back to avoid having to tangle with the Americans at close range amid the smokescreen and LV hindrance. Left a half squad and a couple of dummies in the Rail Station fully expecting them to die in the defense. Withdrew across the R20-Y9 road by the end of turn 3, expecting to contest the inevitable crossing with an MMG in a foxhole in Y9 and the 81mm MTR in Z7. Then the leader directing the MG broke. Then the MG crew cowered. The the MTR broke too. Then the Americans laid smoke on the local defenses and rushed across. Game, set, and match.
2019-05-11(D) Richard Jenulis vs Greg Barness American win
