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.

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.
2019-11-01(A) Kermit Mullins vs Scott Waites French winI sent my French tanks in 5 platoons of 2 tanks each and just ran for the east edge. The 37L AT Guns opened up and destroyed 4 tanks and immobilized another. But then the far north gun would MALF and then roll a repair of 6 and be gone. The door was open and I sent two tanks through for the win.
