Overview:

Despite numerous pleas from his field commanders, Hitler insisted that the main thrust of the Ardennes offensive not be diminished just to shore up the flanks. This General Brandenberger’s 7th Army, charged with protecting the southern flank as the panzers advanced in the center, contained only one Fallschirmjager division and three Volksgrenadier divisions. The 352nd Volksgrenadier Division lacked training, veteran non-coms, or motorized transport. On December 16th it crossed the Our River in front of the US 109th Infantry Regiment and two field artillery battalions situated on Skyline Drive. . .
Attacker: German (915th Volksgrenadier Regiment, 352nd Volksgrenadier Division)
Defender: American (107th and 108th Field Artillery Battalions, 28th Infantry Division)

2020-07-29(D) Craig Renier vs Dave Mareske American winAxis entered from SW and quickly overwhelmed the weak American units in the wood line. However, repeated used of intensive fire from the American guns effectively held the German advance by eliminating, breaking, and, most often, pinning Axis units. The game was called at the end of Axis Turn 4.
2020-07-29(A) Dave Mareske vs Craig Renier American win
2020-07-17(D) Dave Mareske vs Craig Renier German winBe sure to set your guns back as the Americans got overrun early with not many gun shots. Good win for the Germans.
2020-07-17(A) Craig Renier vs American German winAmerican guns were emplaced center board within two moves of German entry. The German main assault entered in the center. Initial German losses were significant, but the Germans were able to make large gains in the first two turns. American conceded at the end of Turn 3.
2020-03-27(D) Kevin Sanders vs Rob Brown American winBroken 105 on intensive fire early, weak left defence, broken MMG late and lots of stress. But US win after very risky CC win 1 hex from 155.
