In this first scenario of the Utah Beach battle game, the Germans set up in the center of the map to defend against US troops advancing towards Fauville. Trying to slow the US advance, the German defenders were spread a little too thin-while they did delay the advance by disrupting and demoralizing the advancing yanks, the lower quality of the Ostbattalion led to morale issues of their which when under assault by the US troops led to their destruction all over the board. Out of 13 combat units, by turn 18 only 1.5 infantry platoons, a mortar platoon and some 50mm guns remained with the US forces controlling Fauville and streaming off of the map. With no change of success, the remnants of the Ostbattalion capitulated to end the slaughter. Comprised primarily of conscripted Poles and Russians, seeing their countrymen slaughtered all around the map it is likely that those few remaining units killed their German NCO's and surrendered happily. The US lost one infantry platoon, a leader and a group of Jeeps when hit by anti-tank rounds from the 50mm guns as they rounded a corner in the road. Other than that, it was total domination by the US Army in this scenario.
