Overview:
A critical moment of the Ardennes campaign. Marshal Montgomery's great offensive, on the verge of changing the course of the battle, comes up against a major obstacle: the 2nd Panzer Division, exhausted by the fighting. The confrontation at Bure, on that fateful January 3, revealed the harsh realities of war: tanks, paratroopers and panzergrenadiers engaged in a brutal struggle in the middle of the narrow streets of the village. However, the outcome remains uncertain. Will Montgomery's forces regroup and persevere, or will the battle-weary 2nd Panzer Division prove insurmountable?Attacker: British (13th (Lancs) Parachute Battalion, 6th Airborne Division)
Defender: German (2 Panzer Division)

| 2025-01-06 | (A) Robert Wiebe | vs | German | German win (VASL Log) | 5.33 hrs | Misplayed the British reinforcements, and left them open for annihilation from the German reinforcements that arrived in their Turn 3. By game end the British had two of the four required buildings, and were seriously threatening a third, however three PF shots later two of the Shermans were brewed up and this put the Germans at 40CVP, thus denying the British VC. If the German Panthers had been delayed till turn 4 it might have proved a different outcome. Also, the British rolled very poorly on Turn 1 for WP/SMOKE, which didn't provide enough cover from the rearward German 81mm Mtrs. | |
| 2024-04-18 | (A) Paolo Cariolato | vs | Federico Corso | British win | This one is quite unbalanced, too many AFV for the Brits and 8 morale paras, are too much for 7 morale germans and some late comers reinforcements. The fact that the reinforcement are not sure until 4 turn makes things very bad for the germans. The blanket is just too short for the defender. Avoid it. |
