Overview:

Aprilia was supposed to be a "model" town created by the fascist government during the 1930's. The construction caused the town to look like a factory to the Allies, and the name stuck. The 179th RCT was given the order to take "The Factory." Two companies from the 3rd Battalion and two companies from the 191st Tank Battalion were ordered to attack on the 11th. The armor showed up late, forcing the infantry to make the assault with tank support.
Attacker: American (3rd Battalion, 179th RCT, 45th 'Thunderbird' Infantry Division)
Defender: German (Infantrerie-Regiment 725, Infanterie-Division 712)

2024-09-21(A) O Ramaille vs German winThe way the American reinforcements enter is certainly a key to victory. Here, they decided to enter on turn 2 cutting withdrawal possibilities for the first group of Germans. With that move, they easily gained 3 of the required multihex buildings. However, this allowed the Germans to the East to regroup and defend their positions. And thus they did slowing the American progress. They managed to get one more building through successful assault and another by a flanking maneuver. On the last turn, the American still needed the control of one multihex building. They launched the assault on this heavily defended building which was the German HQ. Most of the US troops broke but they managed to enter the building and get some CC with no success. A fun scenario for a German victory.
2020-07-31(D) Kermit Mullins vs Scott Waites American winGot spanked hard by the American firepower. I missed morale checks early and often and ELR'd all over the place. Not a fun scenario for the Germans.
