Well, this is PG as it should be! The Germans made a strong entrance, with all but one Grenadier platoon entering within the first two turns. Although the American M16 caused severe carnage, the Germans were able to press in close and engage the artillery battery by fire, eliminating its infantry cover and transport in short order. Attempts to destroy the battery itself by fire also failed, and it was down to the last activation of the last turn to decide the result. Although the Americans won the initiative, the M16 was unable to drive the Germans off, and a desperate infantry assault wiped the howitzers out, handing victory to the Volksgrenadiers, albeit with a hefty butchers bill.

The Germans were helped by lashings of luck, with most of the troops getting on-board early and the Americans doing some awful shooting. Definitely a very good scenario, and one worth a replay and/or F2F play
