Overview:

The battle for Aachen had been raging for two days. A complicated series of maneuvers designed to encircle the city from both the north and south had been occupying the American command. These few units committed to the frontal assault on Aachen had some tough going. Not only were the Aachen defenders numerically superior, but they were fighting on their home soil for one of the cherished Nazi symbols: Aachen, home of the First Reich.
Attacker: American (3rd Battalion, 26th Infantry Regiment)
Defender: German (404th Regiment, 246th Volksgrenadier Division)

2020-08-06(D) David Garvin vs Loic Gourdon German winI stopped him by the seat of my pants. Loic was a single controlled hex away from winning; it was that close!
2020-07-20(A) cesar moreno vs Craig Renier American win
2020-07-20(D) Craig Renier vs Cesar Moreno American winThe American advance focused on the German right and center. The German defense was able to hold up well to the American assault, but German forces were slowly reduced. In the final two turns, the German defense had no leaders remaining. While very close, the Americans were able to gain control of the last required building hexes in the final turn.
2020-07-12(A) Craig Renier vs Keith Hiljus American winMain American thrust was on the German right flank. The German HMG was positioned in the center covering the open ground on the right. However, the MMC broke. Another MMC took its place but failed to recover the HMG for two player turns giving the American forces time to cross the open ground. The remaining American forces advanced up the center and were able to make slow progress capturing enough building hexes to make up the balance not captured on the German right. German player conceded at the beginning of German Turn 6.
2020-05-24(D) Dave Mareske vs Craig Renier German winInitial slow advancement by the Americans is proving to wear down the Germans. Will they have enough troops and time to take the number of victory hexes...Americans came up short in Victory locations as the Germans were worn down to almost nothing on the last turn.
