Overview:

Christmas Day found the American garrison at Bastogne surrounded. The Germans marked the holiday with an assault on the hitherto quite northwestern perimeter – with Bastogne as the goal. Kampfgruppe Maucke split up at dawn, with the smaller element moving north to bypass Champs. It unknowingly advanced to a collision with B and C Companies of the 502nd Parachute Infantry. . .

2023-09-20(A) Todd Cox vs German win1 Hellcat broke MA on the very first attack role of the game. Eventually got it back working but not soon enough. Germans exited 4 AFV off map in the 5th turn.
2023-09-02(A) Yuqi Xiong vs Format German winA game about hiding and running. After figuring out where the 2 hellcats were and destroying 1, my remaining 5 tanks sneaked out of the map.
2023-04-13(A) nathan wegener vs Voss Graham German winNorth side rush into a hidden M18. Lost one Pz4 in DFPH and one in his next prep but no ROF which saved me when my stug took him out.
Had to run a bazooka gauntlet but was able to smoke him to escape.
