2023-10-03(A) Rich Worden vs German winLove the map, but with even dice rolling this one would be tough for the Germans to pull off. The American super-heroic leaders are powerful. In this playing the American AT gun never came into play.

My German tank got a bit of a lucky shot early to take out the paratroopers' sentinel squad high up over the countryside in the Maison de Retraite, and remainder of my force sprinted into town. Some vicious close combats cleared out the center of town, and by T6 the Germans were in or adjacent to the church with my (8) surviving squads. On their turn the paratroops tried to skulk out the back to avoid massed firepower, but took a Pin result so couldn't re-enter the building. On the subsequent German turn fire by the tank missed, but several squads broke the American half squad up in the steeple. The church was then Mopped Up for an immediate German win.

Enjoyable game for both players with a good deal of back and forth. Certainly helped the Germans that all three American SMC were either wounded or killed.
2023-08-11(D) Jack Wilson vs Ken Walsh American winAlthough fun to play on a well-done historical map of the St. Mare Eglise area, like others have pointed out, this one is definitely tilted toward the Americans. As usual, Ken played an excellent game and took advantage of two tactical blunders on my part.

He managed to get into the church and the game came down to a last turn CC. He needed a 5 to win but rolled a 7.

Advice to future American players: consider placing the ATG to the rear as a last-stand piece should the Germans get that far. I placed mine to the front, but it was quickly bypassed and it played no role in the game.
