Overview:

Towards the latter part of Operation NORDWIND in the Alsace Province in eastern France, the Germans shifted their focus to the Rhine River. In response the inexperienced 12 Armored Division had tried to take the initiative against the German Bridgehead west of the Rhine near the towns of Herrlisheim and Offendorf. Despite initial successes, the American tankers lost a number of vehicles and men. These losses increased as the experienced SS-Panzer-Division 10 "Frundsberg" deployed into the area. The Germans sought to regain the initiative and reignite their campaign. The SS Troops looked to capture the town of Weyersheim before moving on to Strasbourg. Capturing this center would potentially crack the American Defense in the Alsace province, the approach to Weyersheim was a series of water obstacles, patches of woods and open spaces.

2021-12-29(D) Paolo Cariolato vs Federico Corso American winGreat scenario, lot of choices for both players and tons of toys. The germans have the numbers and quality to win this one, but they are short on time and the 4th building will not fall so easily.
The first difficult choice for both players is to decide how many assets assign to the lone building on the north side,
Our game was decided on the last CC but unfortunately we discovered at game end that the american mortar exhausted its WP in our previous session, rula A.2 kicks in but it's always a pity to discover that your session built up on a mistake.
Great scenario with great replay value.
2021-05-25(A) patrick palma vs Fabio Mazzucchelli German (SS) win
2021-04-23(A) Andy Bagley vs Neil Brunger American winInteresting and exciting scenario. The SS don't have far to go to reach their victory objectives and have a lot of firepower, but there are only 5.5 turns and the Americans are well-equipped too. I made a direct attack on the central village using almost all my forces, making good progress at first before getting bogged down. More seriously, I lost the tank battle, with one Panther going down to a HEAT round from a hidden M8 HMC, and another lost to a lucky 76mm APCR round, whilst his other M8 HMC held its ground in the front line and delayed me for ages..I couldn't cross the central road through the village (hexrow Q) and conceded in my 5th turn.
