Overview:
As a part of its contribution to Operation GRENADE, the U.S. 30th Infantry Division had adopted the own style of infantry blitzkrieg. With German units withdrawing across their front to escape the attacks of the 29th Infantry Division, the 30th found itself in the enviable position of attacking units that were deployed to defend against attacks from another direction. This, coupled with their ‘round the clock attacks, enabled “Old Hickory” to make spectacular advances on the days following the crossing of the Roer River. Having taken the towns of Steinstrass and Lich on the afternoon of the second day, the 30th bounded forward again to assault Oberembt, hoping to catch the defenders unprepared.Attacker: American (2nd Battalion, 117th Infantry Regiment)
Defender: German (Volksgrenadier Division 363 and Sturmmorser Kompanie 1002)

| 2022-03-26 | (D) Richard Jenulis | vs | Greg Rodgers | German win | Highlights for the Americans: Squeezing off a tight shot to flame the Mark IV, taking an army of prisoners, and avoiding any infantry loss [except for a 7-0 on turn 4], until the bottom of turn 6. Highlights for the Germans: Gramma, the German hyper-sniper, who wounded the 10-2 on turn one, eliminated a 7-0 on turn 4, and broke, DMed and Pinned a load of Americans through the game. The INF Gun, who took out a Sherman on the second hit after spinning her CA, Immobilized the Armored Car and the 90L, and the Strumtiger, who only got one hit on turn 6 the rubbled two levels of the VC building, eliminating 2 American squads, an American Hero, and 2.5 Prisoner Squads. The game came down to the last shot with a 4-4-4-7 holding the building for the win. Super exciting scenario. The Americans were at 33 CVP suffered. | ||
| 2022-03-20 | (A) Maurizio Mai | vs | Luca Martini | American win (VASL Log) | Interesting scenario, with American attacking through some open ground, SMOKE needed. I was lucky with a LOS "unexpected" and got the Sturmtiger stopped in the rear in the first MPh (Bounding Fire). Rolled a 3 and then a 4. After that the scenario was pending in favor of the green counters. Difficult scenario for the German with 1 ELR.... | ||
