Overview:
Colonel Reuben Tucker personally appealed to General Gavin to allow his 504th Regiment to attack Cheneux. Friendly civilians had reported a large column of German vehicles, including tanks, encamped there. Normally an American infantry regiment would request a battalion of armor for support before making such an assault, but Colonel Tucker had an ace up his sleeve. His men had recently captured a whole truckload of panzerfausts, had practiced with them, and now were ready to use them on the enemy. Combined with the early arrival of the latest model of bazooka, Tucker figured his force was strong enough to carry out the assault alone.Attacker: American (1st and 3rd Battalions, 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division)
Defender: German (SS) (SS-Panzergrenadier-Regiment 2, SS-Panzer-Division 1 "Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler")

2022-12-30 | (D) Neal Ulen | vs | Scott | German (SS) win | Oof, I have no way to know if this classic scenario is any good. Poor Scott got absolutely reamed by the VASL dicebot. It was over after turn 3. He'd lost his 10-2, 9-2, his AFV, and about half his squads were outright eliminated. The SS averaged 6.3 on IFT rolls, the Americans averaged 8.9 on the IFT. In 3 turns the SS only had to take one MC, and the unit easily passed. It was an ugly, ugly game so we put it out of its misery. | |
2022-10-28 | (A) Dmitry Klyuykov | vs | Herbert | American win (VASL Log) | That was a blast of the game and Herbert is the great opponent to play with. Americans focused to advance along the central axis towards the nearest victory buildings. Getting broken and rallied time after time they slowly crawled hex by hex towards their goal. German sniper killed US 9-1 leader, but lucky WP broken the SS HMG squad, so attacking forces were able to crawl a little bit closer. US tank was Shocked every time it tried to start the engine. On the third try it was able to roll to outflank the village, but was stunned on its way. The dramatic final was German Defensive Fire with 9-2 leader which created the hero from CX squad adjacent to the victory building. Hero advanced with CX squad, no ambush for both sides, but Americans were lucky in CC roll securing the kill at 1-1 odds and surviving the retaliation. |
