Scenario	BaBu047

This scenario doesn't really play out according to history, which saw the rather weak German force with no artillery attack the town, while retreating armored infantry from Task Force Cherry mess with the Germans after the attack fails.

In reality, the German force is pinned between the stronger American Airborne in the town, and the small but not out armored infantry, trying to eliminate steps and accrue points. If they eliminate the armored infantry before the airborne can reach them (not the historic premise, but as the scenario actually seems to dictate), they can dig in and try to survive with enough points to outlast the points going to the US for controlling the town.

This seems to be the best bet at least, although it still isnt a fair fight.

Unfortunately the Germans roll very poorly with their AT guns (not even able to take out the half tracks with 50mms for the first 5 turns),and the German attack just disintegrates against the american artillery.

Really not much to play out, but I gave it a 3 instead of a 2 for the interesting choices in how to tackle this as the Germans. With better die rolls it would have been more interesting as well.
