Overview:

The French 55th Division was ordered to attack and recapture the Gaulier Bridge over the Meuse River that the Germans had captured in a previous days’ fighting. The western side of the German defense was a thin line of anti-tank guns. Lt. Beck-Broichsitter commanded an anti-tank platoon attached to the Grossdeutschland Regiment. His forces covered a crossroads east of Connage and encountered a group of French tanks minutes away from the Gaulier Bridge.

2025-03-11(A) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne DuvalD German winGermans had great ROFs and 3 Critical Hits which quickly transformed the French forces into a heap of Burning Wrecks.

2021-03-03(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best French winVery quick game. My Germans couldn’t hit water if they fell out of a boat. And only got rate twice and in two turns MALF’d two of the guns. I immobilized one tank which then fired and destroyed a gun. I never had a chance. Dan exited 9 tanks with no trouble for the win. I roll too badly to be the Germans in this one.
2020-04-04(A) David Ramsey vs Stuart Brant French winRan off the tanks fairly easily - very tough on the Germans.
2020-04-04(D) David Ramsey vs Stuart Brant German winCame down to the last dice roll - but the Germans rolled low enough. The French tanks dallied around a little too much and could have maybe run off a turn earlier.
