Overview:

After several days of struggle, the City of Aachen-one of the first major towns to be threatened on the Western Front-was now completely enveloped. The veteran US 1st Infantry Division had approached from the south, while the 30th Infantry Division, a National Guard Unit known as "Old Hickory," had done so from the north. Five kilometers north of Aachen, the town of Wurselen was one of the few supply routes still open for the Aachen Garrison. Fighting was particularly fierce in the northern section of town, around the critical rail and road links. The 30th was pushing hard and the panzergrenadiere and panzers from Panzer-Division 116 "Windhund" (Greyhounds) responded to the pressure.

2022-08-31(A) Rob MacGinley vs James Short German winThough US have good firepower and you try to flank and surround - really really hard to dig the Germans out
2022-08-22(A) David Shannon vs Tim Reade German winI lost too much force by turn 3 - infantry on the northern flank pushing into CC7 building, and 3 tanks pushing from the west. I had a flanking force coming in from the south as well, but in hindsight it would have been better placed elsewhere - either a stronger western or northern push.
2022-07-25(D) Sagaz Llsagaz vs Pepe Juncar German winThe Americans had pushed to far at the beginning of the scenario, and lost a good bunch of squads when the German reinforcements surrounded them...Nice Scenario, that allow both players to defend and attack.
2022-06-10(A) Paolo Cariolato vs Guido Guerra American win
2022-05-01(D) Paolo Cariolato vs Massimiliano Colosimo German winI bagged the on map Americans on turn 1, they advanced too much and were encircled and routed (failing it) by my armor and infantry. I retreated slowly but some counterattack drove Americans out of the victory buildings.
Nice scenario.
