Overview:

As Canadian forces pushed steadily through the olive groves and vineyards west of Ortona, Fallschirmjäger-Division 1 was compelled to establish a new defensive line in the town itself. Ortona was already something of a rubble-strewn maze from damage caused by near-incessant Canadian artillery fire; now the Germans enhanced the shambles with demolitions to block likely avenues of approach. By 20 December, the Canadians had reached the outskirts of southern Ortona. A reconnaissance conducted late that evening revealed no German presence whatsoever. Plans were laid to enter the town using the main road -- the Corso Vittorio Emanuele -- to push straight through to the other end of Ortona. At dawn the next morning, the Loyal Edmonton Regiment launched the attack and almost immediately ran into well-prepared German defenses the recce had not revealed.
Attacker: Canadian (C Company, Seaforth Highlanders of Canada, 2nd Canadian Infantry Brigade and Three Rivers Regiment, 1st Canadian Armoured Brigade)
Defender: German (Bataillon II, Fallschirmjäger-Regiment 3, Fallschirmjäger Division 1)

2025-04-25(D) Jonathan Plott vs Lew Walker German winBitter Ender 2025 in Raleigh, NC. A great game of hide-and-seek as the Canadians attempted to flush my Fallschirmjaegers out of the village. Best use of dummy stacks I've ever done. A close game that came down to the final turn. Turned out to be a one-game mini-tournament; won the (un)prestigious "Where's Steiner?" plaque! Great meting a fellow vet and ASL player!

2025-03-21(A) David Garvin vs Dan Lepore Canadian winFor FNF. My Canadians were able to break through and get enough buildings, along with the church, to seal the win. Great Fun!
2025-02-09(D) rene cote vs mrosberg German win
2024-08-03(A) Michael Rodgers vs Ted Wilcox Canadian winTed thought the Canadians had the entire board edge to enter, so his German setup was flawed.
