At start of the third and final scenario of the Omaha battle game, the German player can not win... But it could be a draw if my US troops do not reach objective one : controlling St Pierre du Mont on the far western end of the boards. Within the battle game perspective, we don't care anymore about the scenario victory conditions: only St Pierre du Mont matters. The German player has hidden units and, among them, the dreadful 10-1-2 German leader and a 88mm AA section. My US troops will advance along the central road and along the northern side aswell: I need to conquer the central hill on board 106 to have a clear LOS all around and threaten the Germans troops with artillery (2X10). 26 turns seem confortable but there's a long way to go.... The first resistance is encountered in hexes 106 0612 and 106 0913. The German mortar is hidden in 106 0617. However, the US infantry efficently seconded by the Sherman platoons erase all the dug in opposing units. While the survivors run desperately (these hedges make it so slow) back to St Pierre du Mont, the US troops take time to gather again before assaulting again. Meanwhile, US aircrafts inflict more damage to the Germans. In the final assault on St Pierre du Mont, one sherman step was destroyed by the 88mm but, again, the assaults were mostly "killing German" parties... In the end, the US lost only 3 unit steps and all German forces were destroyed. Total victory for the US : scenario + battle game .
