Overview:

Operation CHARNOOD called for the 59th Division to join I Corps at the centre of the line between the 3rd Canadian Division and 3rd British Division. With all three divisions attacking simultaneously, assisted by massive artillery and naval support fire, the defenders, in theory, would be overwhelmed. It would be the first battle for the 59th Division. Phase II would start at 07:30 hours. This phase involved an attack by 197 Brigade on the right, with two battalions up: 1/7 Royal Warwickshire to capture St. Contest and 2/5 Lancashire Fusiliers to capture Malon; and an attack by 176 Brigade on the left with 7 Royal Norfolk to capture Epron. All of these settlements were being held by the 25.SS-Panzergrenadierregiment of the 12.SS-Panzerdivision "Hitlerjugend".
Attacker: British (Elements 1/7th Battalion, The Royal Warwickshire Regiment, 59th (Staffordshire) Infantry Division)
Defender: German (SS) (Elements II./25.SS-Panzergrenadierregiment, 12.SS-Panzer Division "Hitlerjugend")

2023-09-03(D) Enrico Saletti vs British British winQuite an unbalanced scenario and quite some bad choices defending the ground. The Gun made the difference, though; I woud've been slaughtered much faster without. I kept changing CA and gaining acquisition, but in the end the fate was sealed easily for the Germans.
2023-06-23(A) Indy Lagu vs Pete Phillips British winI was able to use the sheer weight of British squads
to slowly move through the SS defenders. Pete's setup
was quite good, and I made a mistake in leaving a broken
HS alone (who subsequently rallied on a 2 and created a
leader).

By the time the German reinforcements arrived, the Germans
were in a very precarious position and it was only a matter of
time before the Brits could mop them up.
