Set Up
Objectives are in front of the 10.5cm guns and in the woods and just above the house/church and in the woods at the top of the picture
US Armoured Recce teams ready to advance
Marders laying in wait
8-Rads discover the location of the Brit 6-pdrs
Turn 1-2
Marders blitz out and open fire on the Lees knocking out 3 tanks
HMGs open fire and start knocking out Recce Jeeps
Turn 3
Stuarts arrive from reserve and are greeted by PaK 40 fire knocking out one tank and bailing another
Marders and HMGs continue to take out the Recce platoons
Turn 4-5
A failed assault followed by shooting allow another 2 Stuarts get knocked out
Genadiers seize an object and spread out so the Armoured mortars can't hit them all with a barrage
M10s arrive from reserve knocking out a Marder as the Tiger and KV advance destroying the M10s
Turn 6
Grenadiers move to support the PaK 40s who are taken out by an assault they couldn't run away from despite not taking a hit!
Grenadiers holding the objective lose a stand to fire as the Armoured Mortars move to engage with .50 cals
Turn 7
Armoured Mortars assault the Grenadiers to attempt to prevent a German win
The final Lee attempts to get close to the objectives the 10.5cm guns are guarding, only to be destroyed
In the end the Germans were able to hold onto the victory taking the game 7-4.
