Overview:

Breaking out of Normandy, Maj. Gen. Stroh's "Pathfinders" of the 8th Infantry Division advanced quickly across the Breton coast and was the first infantry division to arrive in the Brest area, relieving the 6th Armored on 18 August. In a hasty attempt to catch Fallschirmjager-Regiment 7 off guard in late August, some of the 8th spearheads got too far ahead of their supporting elements. On the night of August 28, companies E,F, and G tried to infiltrate through German positions near Kergoas and Hill 97, but were halted early in the morning by two assault guns and a captured M4 Sherman. This panzer counter punch was beaten back, but caused considerable havoc among 2nd Battalion. They were promptly counterattacked by the always-aggressive German paratroops.
Attacker: German (Fallschirmjäger-Regiment 7, Fallschirmjäger-Division 2)
Defender: American (2nd Battalion, 28th Infantry Regiment, 8th Infantry Division)

2021-03-03(A) Will Willow vs C. Noguiera American winWent up the American right and got bogged down. Americans generated a Hero who was a PITA.
2021-03-03(D) Vilis Pavulans vs Matt Velazquez American winA bit slow advance in the center made the game impossible for the germans.
2020-10-09(A) Richard Jenulis vs Neal Ekengran German winvASLOK 2020 open play. Americans resigned at the end of the German player turn 2.
2020-08-28(D) X von Marwitz vs Chris Hofland American winPlayed the defending Americans in this one. The Americans need to pull off a fallback defence not getting caught by the Germans and making maximum use of the Bocage terrain to buy time. This is really a game about movement, less about shooting. See a full AAR here:

2020-07-26(D) nathan wegener vs Bob Bendis German winStL2020 - I expected the Germans to push up the middle and had a defense in place to stop them... Until my MMG broke on its first firelane shot. That flank collapsed as the Americans couldn't pass an MC and the German's rolled through.
