Overview:

By dusk on the 14th, the Germans had established three bridgeheads across the Meuse River. The 15th brought the next stage: the breaking of the last major elements which stood between them and the great plains of France. One point of the last line of defense was the village of Bouvellemont. Here, one regiment of the 15th Division proved too much for the German 1st Infantry Regiment and the attack soon bogged down. With more than half of their officers killed and many of the companies at half strength from fatigue as well as losses, the regimental commander, Colonel Balck, realized that for the attack to continue, he would have to lead the final assault himself.

2022-08-14(A) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval German winUsed French balance. Germans managed to completely avoid one of the Guns and quickly silenced the one in their path. VC dr was 3, for Control of buildings. Had 2 by Turn 6 and clear path to victory with only 2 French HS left to stop the aggressors.
2022-08-07(A) Eric Partizan Eric vs French win
2021-12-29(D) Dan Best vs James Treu German winWinter camp 2021.
2021-07-20(A) Jeff B vs Joe Arthur French winLots of things working against the Germans here. The no-DT rule and prevalence of grain will make moving infantry individually extremely difficult. I succumbed to the lure of stack moving and paid a heavy price. Considering my opponent went on rate tear after rate tear with four ROF=2 weapons, one ROF=3 weapon, two -1 leaders, and much open ground to cross the bloody mess that ensued wasn't really surprising. You may look at the old scenario and see an even win/loss ratio. It is blatantly apparent that this is predicated on the Germans getting smoke. When my radio operator was KIA (taking his radio with him to the grave) that sort of threw that plan out the window.
