Overview:
Vierville, which lay a few miles inland from Utah Beach, had been liberated on D-Day. On the morning of June 7, elements of the 2nd Battalion, 506th PIR moved out from Vierville towards St. Come du Mont, leaving Vierville virtually unoccupied. The Germans took this opportunity to launch a series of counterattacks on Vierville in hopes of cutting the road to St. Come du Mont. -- This is a great ASL introductory scenario. It involves using Infantry and Leaders counters, no support weaons and no SSRs.Attacker: German (1058th Grenadier Regiment/919th Grenadier Regiment/6th Fallschirmjäger Regiment)
Defender: American (1st Batt. 506th PIR, 101st Airborne)

| 2021-05-24 | (D) David Garvin | vs | Herb Boutilier | German win | Herb's first ASL match in quite some time. Mentor game, but he did most of the "thinking" himself. Great fun! |
| 2021-05-13 | (D) Andreas Brueckner | vs | Alex Jansen | German win | Over three evenings this was our first ASL SK game. Great fun, overwhelming German victory after a mad dash of the Americans for the two southern VP buildings in round 4 ended in desaster. |
| 2021-03-21 | (D) Yannick Le Teigner | vs | German | American win | We actually played it twice (second time with German balance), and both times the American won. The German really have to cut off the American reinforcements with the first turn squads. If not, the American will have these massive 21FP(w/ -1 or -2) stacks that are just too powerful. |
| 2021-03-07 | (D) Jim Liang | vs | Craig Renier | American win | Learning game. Broke German units in M5 and L5 during Advancing Fire Phase of Turn 5 to win. |
| 2021-02-14 | (D) Jason Mr. | vs | Benjamin Steinberg | American win (VASL Log) | Germany rushed in with full platoons to the East and West and took two victory buildings on the first half of the first turn. America turned around and faced the onslaught bravely and pushed the Germans back to never rally again. A dangerous thrust by the Germans mid game turned into a disaster and Germany conceded by turn 4. |
