Scenario AirR015

The USParatroops with tanks and additional support from the 4th Infantry need to take the area around St Mere Eglise and keep casualties to under 8 steps, which for this scenario includes leaders. With the Germans having built a semi-circular front around the town, the paras and their tanks went right at the target, killing the German 75mm AT gun fairly early. And the attack bogged down as quickly, with the paras losing nearly double the points by turn 6, including 4 steps at tanks and 2 officers. The Germans were holding the target town and most of their line with just 4 steps lost and more than enough time to fall back in the east to keep the line intact and replace losses. With the backbone of the attack broken, the US commanders called the troops to fall back, and live to fight another day. Good game.
