Overview:

For the opening phase of Unternehmen Herbstnebel (Operation Autumn Mist), Oberst Heinz Kokott’s 26.Volksgrenadierdivision had one of the toughest tasks in that it had to clear the roads west of Our River for the panzers of the 2. and the 116.Panzer Divisionen. Crossing the Our in rubber boats at 03:00 hours and infiltrating their way past the American outposts, Oberstleutnant Kaufmann’s Füsilier Regiment 39 had reached Holzthum at 06:00 hours before anyone in the US 28th Infantry Division sector was even aware an attack was in progress.

2023-01-22(A) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins German win
2023-01-16(D) Camille Garek vs Gerard Vandervelden American win
2022-12-19(D) Indy Lagu vs Rob Oler American winAnother quick-playing and interesting offering by Lone Canuck.

Twelve German squads (a mix of 1st and 2nd line) try to take
a village held by six American 2nd liners and two crews.

A straightforward situation with an interesting force mix.

Our playing was not representative: Rob lost two squads to
rolling 12 on MC or Rally attempts. He also lost two squads
in CC. I lost a half-squad in that CC.

In typical fashion, Rob was not willing to blame the dice for
his loss. I do. I guess dicey-ness is possible in a small scenario.

The Germans have three avenues of attack. The Americans have
to defend all of them. Rob split into two forces; in hindsight, he
thinks keeping his OB on one axis would have been better.

We would both play this again...
