Scenario ElsR012

Wanting to play a Bulge game on this anniversary of the Bulge, and wanting to play something fitting to the date, I selected this scenario. The set-up includes both sides placing a total of 10 wreck counters in the two towns, and then the I-go-u-go thing as each side places a unit and then a leader until they are all placed. Germans won the initiative and pretty much kept it as far as I could manage to play, and it was sort of sad what Panthers and Mk IVs could do to tanks in adjacent hexes, as right from the start, they took out all 3 Shermans and both M-18s in turn 1 and lost a step of Panthers to a bazooka in turn 2. Otherwise, the US losses at the start of turn 6 was 30 to only 5 for the Germans, with US units stuck in assaults, cut off and surrounded so that any fleeing troops would be an immediate loss. With only a handful of US units left, their Colonel passed the word to only surrender to the German regulars, avoid the SS if possible, and with that, the twin villages fell into German hands.
