Introduction
|
|
Despite a serious shortage of food and ammunition Colonel Single and his men had captured Biffontaine early on the 23rd. With the village only two miles from the 716th Infantry's headquarters he knew the enemy would try to drive him out. So the men fortified the village as best they could while praying their supplies arrived in time.

|
Conclusion
|
|
Surprisingly the Germans did not respond to the American seizure of Biffontaine until well into the night. Unfortunately, this reprieve had not bought enough time for the Nisei's supplies to arrive, forcing them to use captured weapons and even flower pots and rocks against their tormentors. This allowed the Nisei to extend their meager ammunition supply, insuring that they wouldn't run out at a critical moment. In the end raw courage overcame superior firepower and the Germans withdrew to regroup.

Additional Notes
|
|
This scenario is an updated version of the "Raw Courage" scenario from the 1st edition of Go for Broke.
The American FLM unit seems to be a hold over from the 1st edition. U.S Army FLM units may be found in Cassino'44, Saipan'44, and Nihon Silk. |
