2019-12-15(A) O Ramaille vs Belgian winThe Belgian decided to destroy the bridge at Bodange. This decision considerably slowed the German progress to Bodange. The German armored cars have to ride along the Sure river and the railroad but two were shot by the unique Belgian AFV. Another one was recalled by a sniper shot. At Wisembach, the German progress was also considerably slowed by the wires and the Belgian resistance. They progressed at last but were stopped by a MG pillbox at Stein Hill. At Bodange, the slow progress by fording the Sure river, through the numerous wires, mines and MG pillboxes, allowed the German to reach the mill and eliminate the Fierce Belgian defenders. But too late. A Belgian MMC had still a LOS to the road Traquebois Bodange. A Belgian victory.
