Overview:
The 4th Infantry Division had struggled through savage fighting in the Hürtgen Forest. Heavy casualties among veteran troop and leaders had taken their toll, forcing both sides to rely on waves of lesser experienced replacements to fill their depleted ranks. Now, Colonel Charles Lanham's 22nd Infantry Regiment was approaching the edge of the forest west of Grosshau. One of the final objectives Lanham had to clear before breaking out of the forest was the rubble filled village of Grosshau. Believed to be lightly defended, the village lay across hundreds of shellholes and open ground. A task force consisting of 3rd Battalion's King and Love Companies, along with attached Sherman tanks and M-10 tank destroyers prepared to attack Grosshau.Attacker: American (King and Love Companies, 3rd Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment and 2nd Platoon, C Company,, 7th Tank Battalion with 803rd Tank Destroyer Battalion, 4th Infantry Division)
Defender: German (Kompanie 3, Battalion I, Infanterie Regiment 1057, Volksgrenadier Division 344 and Sturmgeschütz-Brigade 394 and Sturmpanzer-Abteilung 217)

| 2025-03-08 | (A) Simon Staniforth | vs | IA | American win | Deployed more than I usually would to try and swamp the German defence. German HMG in the Steeple proved effective despite T1 smoke. I stumbled into the Mines fortunately with only a HS / 7-0. Kept the tanks back until later in the game [EXC: firing smoke] then got them in close to freeze / challenge the German AFVs. The 9-2 with a couple of squads manning the 0.5cal / MMG respectively is firing on the 24FP column; he had a couple of decent fire phases later in the game and that proved enough to tip the balance | ||
