Overview:

The headlong advance south towards France’s second largest city, Lyon, by Infantry Regiment Grossdeutschland continued with an assault gun from Lt. Von Werlhoff’s platoon leading the way. The first serious French resistance was met near Neuville-sur-Seine. There was a barricade in front of the village, which had a heavy machine gun, two light machine guns and a 47mm anti-tank gun. The assault spearheaded by the 6th Company, Infantry Regiment GD approached the barricade. Machine gun and rifle fire suddenly erupted from every house and near-by park. The assault gun immediately went into position and blasted the barricade.

2023-01-29(A) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best German winI think this is a tough on on the French even though my AFV malfed its MA on its first shot, a SMOKE attempt. The German Elite INF made steady work of the French taking prisoners, clearing the road Turn 7 and preventing a small counter-attack on the French turn. If you take the French, definitely ask for the balance, though you might need more help than that.
2023-01-29(D) Dan Best vs Dave Mareske German win
2021-11-19(A) Jason Nichols vs Bruno Javanabal German winA steady push by the Germans forced the French back and took a number of prisoners. The STUG was good support and provided smoke when needed to neutralise the French HMG. Came down to last turn and needed to eliminate remaining French squad and half squad. H/S eliminated in CC and the squad held in melee for the win.
2020-11-28(A) Paul Works vs Tom Repetti German win
2020-11-06(D) Richard Jenulis vs Terry Gray French winWest Coast Rumble 2020 round two. My hidden AT crew un-HIPped, moved and advanced next to the road on the last turn for the sleaze win. There Germans danced all around the orchard hex on turns one and two but never entered it. ;)
