An interesting little battle, albeit a bit of an unbalanced one. German forces start out with a healthy infantry force on the table and reinforcements that start to come in immediately with any kind of luck at all. I turned out getting the Panther on turn one and that immediately caused major issues for the Americans. My infantry force deployed south east of the enemy and began moving through the woods while the panther and some infantry in trucks rolled up the road. On turn 4 my infantry had line of site on some of the engineers in the town, causing them to open fire on them, though the German infantry closed quickly on the understrength and unlucky defenders. On turn 5 the Panther opened on the Sherman defending the city and scored an immediate hit, halving the unit, on turn 6 the M4s were destroyed and infantry accompanied the Panther into the north eastern edge of town. The American engineers caused 4 step losses to the Germans in close combat, but were no match for the armor or the shear number of grenadiers flooding into the town, with the last US unit being overrun on turn 15. A major German victory.
