Overview:

As the Third Reich collapsed, many American leaders became bold to the point of recklessness. Often, a daring stroke by a small group of GIs yielded a vast gaggle of demoralized German prisoners. But sometimes the Americans pushed their luck to far and the Germans, like a wounded animal, would lash back with stinging effect. At early dawn, Company A of the 1st Battalion, 504th Parachute Regiment crossed the Rhine and advanced toward the town of Hitdorf. Unfortunately, elements of the 62nd Volksgrenadier Division had just linked up with lingering elements of the 11 Panzer Division, and these Germans were not yet willing to lay down their arms. The landings went easy enough, but as the paratroopers entered the town, they were met by an enemy company that had been rushed to the sector.
Attacker: American (Company A and I, 1st Battalion, 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division)
Defender: German (Hitdorf Garrison Platoon and Volksgrenadier-Division 62 with Panzer-Division 11)

2026-04-12(A) Vic Lauterbach vs JM American winI drew the GIs in this late war scrap. It's retro ASL all the way: nine turns on two full SL boards with OBA for both sides! We both generated two heroes and Jim's wounded 10-2 manned an HMG alone for four turns! I got three stone buildings by turn six (one reduced to rubble by OBA), then I had to hold them against the Panzers for four turns! Jim: Big scenario, big fun and fairly close. The US smoke grenade placement limit helps, but US firepower still rules. By the end of turn 8, it was over. I was out of GO MMC to retake buildings and down to one Panzer IV. Vic's two BAZ44 hits sealed the win. (BTW, the German balance is worthless, one crummy 436, really?)

2020-11-28(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winWow...long game that went down to the final turn. The Germans lost two buildings early, but minefields prevented more break-throughs into the village. Tanks allowed the Germans to recover one of the buildings and hold everything else for the win.
