Germans set up in a rough north-south line in the woods on board 9 with their artillery and mortar six hexes farther east. The Americans split up their attack, advancing half their units (plus the two mortar platoons) from the north and half from the south. The Germans were able to react and divide their forces to meet both attacks. The Americans in the woods to the north had a tough time of it as the Germans had a 10-1-2 leader providing support for most of the units in that sector. Aggressive assaults in both the north and south by the GI's saw them eliminate a large number of Germans (including the 10-1-2 leader), resulting in the remaining German platoons retreating east. As the game reached it's end the German's sole remaining unit was eventually eliminated while defending the town on the east-west road. Although this scenario ended with a lopsided US victory, it could easily go the other way with some better dice rolling on the German side and a less aggressive defensive approach.
