Overview:

On 27 May, the Germans renewed their offensive on the Lys River line. The Belgian 11ème division d’infanterie was unable to withstand the German attack, and a gap appeared in the Belgian lines. The only reserves available were the Groupement Morel de Westgaver consisting of two carabiniers cyclistes regiments and some AFV from the chasseurs d’cheval. This group was tasked to close the gap near the village of Knesselare to allow the 11ème DI to regroup. German Heinkel bombers had severely punished the village, destroying the church and rubbling or setting fire to much of the rest. Forward elements of the group pushed through the village just in time to delay the German advance guard, and heavy fighting quickly erupted.

2021-03-16(A) Rob MacGinley vs James Short German winThe Germans slipped quickly into the village and were impossible to dislodge
2020-08-23(D) Vilis Pavulans vs Erik Grande German winProbably difficult to win for the Belgians. Had a CC roll in turn two which would have brought the germans the win if an 8 was rolled. Of course, a 9 was rolled and the belgians countered with snakes and infiltrated away in the building. Managed to inflict heavy losses in the next turn and the belgians gave up.
2020-04-05(D) S. Slunt vs Stephen Stewart German winWe gave the Belgians the balance (Germans lose a 8-1 ldr. ) Germans took the south route with 4 squads and a leader that came in on turn 3
2020-02-10(A) Rick Troha vs James Johnson German winBelgian right flank collapsed on turn 5 allowing Germans to scoot around right flank, By end of German turn six, they held three buildings and it was obvious the Belgian reinforcements could not reclaim two buildings, so conceded.
2019-02-09(D) Richard Jenulis vs David Wolfe German winNWASL Championship 2019
