Scenario

...the Germans, fearful of what American spotters ontop of Hill 400 might discover, release parts of the 272. Volksgrenadier-Division, earmarked for the coming Ardennes offensive, to stop the American push on Bergstein.

I actually was there once, nice view indeed. Wasn't it ranger that assaulted it though?

Re: Scenario
 

hmm...

The initial attack (Dec 5) on Bergstein was carried out by the depleted 10th Tank Bn and 47th Armored Infantry Bn, supported by elements of the 8th US Infantry. They managed to capture the town but not the Hill from the defending German forces - mainly II/Grenadier-Rgt 980.

Heavy German counterattacks followed where more units of the 272nd Volksgrenadier-Division were comitted, along with KG Türke (elements of the Panzer and Panzerjäger Abteilungen of the 3. PzGren-Div).

Companies D and F of the 2nd Ranger Bn was used to reinforce the effort against Hill 400 (Dec 6) and manged to capture it.

The scenario is based on the events of both Dec 5 and 6. The two ranger companies are included in the scenario as reinforcements - at full strength, which was not the case in 1944 - but then again the Germans have access to the Hetzers of anti-tank units from 272. and 277. Divisions which did supposeldy give fire support but were not comitted otherwise.

Arras region, France
May 21, 1940 -

A British attack into the extended flank of the 7. Panzer-Division cause major problems for the Germans as the slow moving but heavily armoured Matilda I and II tanks prove near impossible to stop.

On the British right flank the 7th Royal Tank Regiment and the 8th Bn, Durham Light Infantry tear into elements of the 7. Panzer and the green Totenkopf Division.

Rommel has his spearhead – the three tank battalion strong Panzer-Regiment 25 under von Rothenburg - wheel around and come back to the aid of the German infantry forces, but by this time parts of the French 3e Division Légère Mécanique has moved in to screen the British effort.


Break the Panzers, crush Rommel...!

This scenario uses timed objectives. Most players should be able to reach a draw, skilled players have a chance at a better result but must be careful with not losing units unnecessarily...
