2024-04-26(D) Nate Gregg vs Chris Gregg American winThe Germans had early luck by taking out the GMC with a rear shot with a 37mm AA gun, but their force near the airfield folded too quickly allowing the Americans to squeeze the remaining defenders into submission.

2023-04-18(A) David Ramsey vs Martin Barker German winThe head on attack, with a small flanking force failed to get the airfield or very far at all. A disaster for the Americans. As show on IR 86
2023-03-31(A) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins German winFirst to play and post.
2023-03-31(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winThis is a very subtle scenario design. I struggled as the Germans in the first couple turns to really understand what was actually going down. The Americans have a strong force, but it can be handled if the German defense can get some early strikes. The reinforcing Germans have a long road to get exit VP, but they can not exit and avoid adding CVP to the Americans and hopefully inflict some. MALF's on our guns was problematic with the M10 MALF'ing twice. Then on Turn 6, the German sniper KIA'd the American 8-1 and that was game as the American attack was stalled. Germans managed to hold the airfield due to the 37L AA Guns and that provided the German victory at the end of 5-1/2 turns.
