Scenario AirI013

This is quick little scenario that can be played in about two hours. The Germans are attacking the town in 0604, the Americans need to deny the Germans the town. With the setup, the Americans stack all 3 units in 0604. This give the maximum defense for the town. Although the Germans will get the +1 shift for stacked units, the town benefits out weight the shift. The Germans "enter" by rolling for units, so they are slow to develop the attack.

In my play, the Germans are slow to get units on the board. It is turn 5 by the time there is enough units to start the assault. The Germans move out with 3 GRENs, HMG, ENG, Captain, and Lt. As they move up they try to move into hedgerows but some Op fire disrupts the attacks. By turn eight, the German mortars move on and give the Germans some firepower against the Americans. German direct fire has been weak and assaults can't be attempted. Mortars pound the town and demoralizes the 57mm AT gun, but the paratroops hold strong. American reinforcements move on to try to counterattack the Germans. By turn 15 the German have attacked 3 times but have been repulsed three times without an assault. German mortars finally score a demoralization on the town defenders but the German GREN's are out of position and the Americans rally. The game ends with the Americans holding 0604 and several German steps are killed. An American win.
