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)

2025-06-14(A) Jan Kärrö vs Fredrik H L American win
2025-03-06(A) Dan Owsen vs Jeff Chrisope American win3 hrsAmerican high firepower controlled the battlefield. Once one of the German flanks broke, the Americans were able to sweep forward and take over the necessary buildings. This scenario shows the effectiveness of high firepower and longer range units, as well as the resilience of the American troops with their high broken morale. There are some very odd LOS situations on one of the boards. I didn’t like that.

2024-07-29(A) Nicolas Leste-Lasserre vs American win
2024-07-18(D) Justin DiSabatino vs D German winGiven the strong American lean, I gave the balance to the Germans this time. It definitely made the approach into the village feel more contested. The Germans set up a HMG in a fortified building on one flank, MMG in a fortified building on the other, each with a leader, and forced the Americans to either funnel through the middle or charge across open ground to be cut down. The Americans tried both routes, and came close, but ultimately had their forces decimated to the point that the VC were impossible and the game called at the top of turn 6.
