Overview:

American forces that dropped from the skies on June 6th were finally consolidating and receiving reinforcements and supplies. Communications had been established with headquarters and the overall picture was emerging. There was still much to do, and General Matthew B. Ridgeway, CO of the 82nd Airborne, was not a man to miss an opportunity. Once the German drive to retake Sainte-Mère-Église via the Carentan-Montebourgh road had run its unsuccessful course, Ridgway decided to push north and attempt a breakout, knowing that the 8th Infantry Regiment was advancing from the beach. Together with armor brought in by Lt. Colonel Edson Raff and troops from the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment, this ws to be a large combined arms operation. Meanwhile the commander of 7th Corps, General “Lightning Joe” Collins, came ashore to plant his flag on French soil. Stopping at a tank park, he told Lt. Colonel Clarence G. Hupfer, CO of the 746th Tank Battalion, to get up and help the 82nd Airborne which might be in trouble. Hupfer, not apt to drag his feet after speaking to a corps commander, charged straight into Ste. Mere-Eglise.

2024-11-02(D) Eric Topp vs Mark Dennehy German winMy Marders were deadly and killed every Sherman that was in their LOS. Having said that, I set up a Marder in T14 without LOS to the US entry hexes because I forgot that the brownish hexes are the hill hexes! Mark had bad luck with his BAZ crews who kept missing the Marders. On turn 7, I walled up around the S15 VC hex. Mark had to commit his remaining Shermans against my Marder blockers instead of Exiting them so was forced to concede.
2023-11-01(D) Camille Garek vs Philippe DUCHON German winChaotic.
A lot of options for both sides.
You have to master bocage rules.
2023-06-05(A) Dave Mareske vs Dennis Dowd American winIt it very hard for some of the Germans to get back and defend the village. The Germans knocked out seven US tanks, but once the infantry got close the defense could not hold up. It does take a good five turns to get the American infantry into the village...Don't drag your feet!
2023-04-22(A) Eric Partizan Eric vs German win
2023-04-15(D) Dave Mareske vs Dennis Dowd German winAmericans did not get enough momentum to keep the Germans from filling up the village with a stout defense.
