Overview:

The immediate objective for the newly landed US 2nd Infantry Division was the village of Trévières, located just south of the Aure River. The plan of attack was for the 38th Infantry Regiment to strike directly at Trévières from the north and west, while the 9th Infantry Regiment would outflank Trévières by seizing Rubercy to the southeast - thus isolating the German position. It was no accident the Germans had chosen the tiny farm of Haute Hameau to make a stand against the approaching 9th Infantry. The old Norman farm with its stone wall courtyard formed an ideal defensive position, commanding the neighbouring country lanes running south in the direction of Rubercy.

Attacker: American (Elements 3rd Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment)

2023-11-09	(D) Indy Lagu	vs	Rob Oler	German win	Another interesting offering in a Quick 6 pack. 10 US 666 squads attacking 6 German 447 on Board 43 with some hedge(row) overlays. Rob chose to exchange three 346 HS and MTR for a 4FP OBA module (see US Ordnance Note 1). He was unlucky in that he didn't make radio contact for three phases...at which time, my Germans were hunkering down, out of his LOS. Turn 1 German DFPh, the HMG gets a K/2 against a stack consisting of a leader and two squads. Rob Yatzeed the RS and was left with a wounded leader and two broken HS. My Germans couldn't really play much of a fall-back defence as there isn't a lot of ground between our setup line and the victory buildings. Still, there was enough for the Germans to do. In typical Robish fashion, he wouldn't blame the dice. I think I had the lion's share of good rolls. Rob's only accomplishment with two BAZ was to X them, and he had similar luck with his MMG. We would both happily play this one again. The German needs to have a decent setup. I think a poor setup can really hamper the German chances. The US should stay in a big clump. Our game was really decided on turn 5 (of 5.5). It seemed close at the end, but Rob's final turn was one of desperation. Another interesting scenario from Lone Canuck. Again, sadly, there is some niggly wording on the scenario card. The experienced player will have no issue understanding the intent. Having said that, tighter wording would be an improvement.
2023-04-08	(A) Allen Evenson	vs	Andrew Schuck	American win	Early German Critical Hit hurt the Americans but they were able to RALLY and weather the tough defense. The German HMG broke at a terrible time and allowed the US to approach mostly unscathed. Meanwhile a flanking force finally got through the screen to attack the compound. Came down to last turn but Americans were able to swarm final building and take it in CC. Dice up an down for both sides.
2022-12-12	(D) Dave Mareske	vs	Dan Best	German win	Germans were able to hold on to a win as the Americans made a final push into the walled compound. All the mortars were fairly ineffective as Dan chose to keep the US mortars and not exchange for the OBA. The HMG did damage but remained a threat throughout the game preventing an all-out move against the compound.
