US set up in large town with M8 Greyhound platoons stationed on the hills to the north and south. The German STG's advanced west along the road and stopped on the outskirts of town while the infantry advanced from the south through the light woods. The American Greyhounds and M16 couldn't stand up to the STG's and were quickly eliminated but the German infantry struggled mightily against US OBA. The Americans assaulted one of the STG's in the town and were able to eliminate it. The Shermans arrived on turn six and immediately moved toward the German infantry while trying to avoid the STG's. The M4's were able to close on the STG's and eliminate many of them while taking no losses of their own. This allowed the Americans to clear the town of all remaining Germans. The Germans then attempted to regroup in the woods on the outskirts of town, but weren't able to rally and form enough of a force to advance on the town again. The Americans won easily, but I can see this one being a lot closer if the Germans were to have some luck against the M4's.
