2021-12-02(D) Andy Bagley vs Magnus Rimvall German winAnother close game decided in the last CC Phase, though the Germans were well ahead by then. Excellent balance of pace and aggression by the Germans, pressing forward steadily supported with very good tactical play. Low American morale failed to stand up against superior German firepower, and I couldn't keep enough units concealed to offset this. Might have been harder for him if a few DRs had gone my way, particularly the CC against a Panther that need 8 or less to kill (I failed), but overall an excellent and very enjoyable game.
2021-12-01(A) Chuck Dye vs DD American win
2021-11-15(D) Michael Rodgers vs Hans Bugge American winVery close game, not decided until final CC phase.
2021-11-08(A) Simon Staniforth vs American winGermans fell short in the J14 VC area too many troops broke in the final turn. HTs weren’t really a factor both getting Stunned / Recalled and whilst 2x M10 fell to PF shots (both needing 3TH!) the US won the infantry battle with his close up FP. Think I used the Smoke OBA too early rather than save for the final push
2021-11-08(D) Andy Bagley vs American winA close and exciting game, and would have been even closer had the dice not been on my side. The German forces clearly outmatch the Americans and they have plenty of smoke available, but their biggest problem is time – just five turns to reach those objectives. The German attack started quite slowly, avoiding casualties but meaning they had a lot of ground to cover (some of it open) in the last three turns. Even so, on the last turn they came close to reaching the required number of victory locations (although would still have had to win the CCs). However, great American shooting and failed German MCs meant they could not get in to two of the locations they needed, so an American win – perhaps a slightly fortunate one.
