Overview:

In the wake of the Liberation of Paris, the 3rd Armored Division poured across the river Seine at Tilly, thanks to an existing bridge, and a new one built by XX Corps engineers. The division’s two main Combat Commands (A and B) immediately deployed into multiple spearheads and pushed northeast, advancing several miles. Forward units of the 33rd Armored Regiment were laagered overnight in a quiet grove east of the town of Corbiel when, at first light, the peace of the early morning was shattered as units of the Reconnaissance Company were suddenly subjected to a vicious attack. Jolted awake, panic ensued among the “doughs” as a platoon of Mark IVs and a scratch kampfgruppe of infantry attacked from the east.
Attacker: German (Elements of the 48. Infanterie-Division and 9. Panzer Division)
Defender: American (Elements of the Reconnaissance Co., 33rd Armored Regiment, Combat Command B, 3rd Armored Division)

2021-01-20(A) Michael Rodgers vs Tom Morin American winAmerican sniper helped the cause by taking out an 8-1 (LLMC broke 1.5 squads) early and recalling one Pz4 in turn 1. Both American halftrack crew abandoned, taking the MA with them. The 9-2 was paired with the 50 cal. Germans took two victory buildings and were in the third, but it was obvious the American reinforcing AFV would swing the scenario to the Americans so German concession.
2021-01-19(D) Andrew Young vs Paul Chamberland German win
2021-01-12(A) Kevin Sanders vs DerekD German winQuick win for Germans. Helped by some missed LOS during US Setup and a lucky break with sniper killing off 9-2 leader T1. Aggressive push and some melee results in German favor = win. Hard one for the US.
2020-12-03(A) David Garvin vs Bob Kedge Johnson American winFor NY State Championship (Virtual)
2020-11-30(A) Scott Fischbein vs Carl Nogueira American winGerman offense fell apart fairly quickly due to a missed LOS on my part early on which broke a couple of units and a leader, and I didn't use my tanks very effectively (still working on that!) Tried a desparation freeze sleaze move in turn 4 before the American tanks could arrive in town, but that went poorly, so conceded at the start of turn 5. Learned some good lessons from Carl, including how to thoroughly dismantle an American AFV and strip it of all its weaponry - bazookas galore! vAlbany 2020 - round 3.
