Overview:

The 2.Panzerdivision and its new commander, Oberst Meinrad von Lauchert, had no real responsibilities during the first phase of Unternehmen Herbstnebel (Operation Autumn Mist). However, its first priority was to capture the bridge over the Clerf River at Clervaux, before advancing on Bastogne. The village was defended by Company B, 1st Battalion, US 110th infantry Regiment and M36 tank destroyers from the 630th Tank Destroyer Battalion. Company B was well dug in and the German assault companies assaulted the village but were unable to pierce the perimeter and were forced to infiltrate the woods north and south, heading for their primary objective, Clervaux.
Attacker: German (Panzer Division 2)
Defender: American (28th Infantry Division, 630th Tank Destroyer Battalion)

(VASL Log)
2.5 hrsPlayed an 80th Bulge anniversary commemaration solo. Nice little scenario though the defender is hampered by pre-assigned locations to defend the approaches to the village. This allows the attacker to focus his attack on one weak sector and relatively easily punch through into the town. Came down to the last turn, with a lone 336 HS in CC with 1.5 German squads. This meant it was not in good order, satisfying the victory conditions for the German.
