Overview:

The 100th Division, part of General Alexander Patch's 7th Army, was advancing through the Low Vosges mountains towards German positions around the Maginot Line fortifications at Bitche. What Colonel Andrew Tycheson of the 399th Regiment did not know was that their adversary, Generalmajor Alfred Philippi, commander of Volksgrenadier-Division 361-a veteran of the Russian Front and recipient of the Knight's Cross-had correctly surmised that the American advance would proceed along the main road leading through Lemberg to Bitche, so he concentrated his forces there.
Attacker: American (399th Infantry Regiment, 100th Infantry Division)

2024-11-13(D) Ian Morris vs Martin Mayers American winAnother close game. Martin only took one building, but ensured he took a lot of prisoners, and squeaked a win by one or two VP.
2024-09-25(D) Ian Morris vs Ian Ainsworth German winPlayed over two sessions, and I dicebotted Ian in both of them. It was still close at the end : in the final turn, the Americans had a 3:1 CC to take a building for an 8-point swing in VP to win the game, but gacked the roll.
2024-05-13(A) Andy Bagley vs Josh Kalman German winSecond time playing this scenario, no American balance this time and a fairly comfortable German win. All credit to my opponent for a very good setup with both Guns on the hilltop, and falling back very slowly giving my infantry very little opportunity for advancing fire. I also had no luck with Smoke or WP from my tanks, and very few successful MCs. By turn 5 the Americans found themselves outnumbered by the remaining German defenders and with no chance of achieving victory, so I conceded.
2024-04-04(D) Craig Renier vs Ed Barnes German winHero creation, snakes on a 1-6 CC, successful PF check followed by a hit, were just a few of the German positive outcomes leaving the Americans with heavy losses vs no losses for the Germans.
2024-03-29(D) Richard Jenulis vs Dan Sullivan American win'24 Chicago Open (round 2). The Americans pushed hard on their right flank. The first two-thirds of the game went very well for the Germans. I was able to turn the American left flank and had them pinned on board 91. Things went so well, that it felt the Americas were on the edge of failing their personal moral check. Then, the game pivoted on a dime and everything fell apart for the Germans. I called it on after the Defensive Fire Phase of turn 7. Two key events that helped turn the tide was a Sherman flaming the AA Halftrack, and the German AT gun that hit a Sherman half a dozen times with no effect. The crew was eliminated and a squad took over and totally wrecked the gun. Very fun game
