In the days following Operation Grenade, the American and British armies are closing in on the Rhine river. The mighty stream is not only one of the last
natural defences of Germany; it also holds strong symbolic importance for the German psyche. While the end of the war is in sight, the desperate defenders of the Reich will not make this last act an easy affair.
*
*
While most of the German units are in headlong retreat towards the river, advancing allied forces have to deal with ambushes and delaying actions with annoying regularity. An American recon team has been attacked by Panzerfausts, indicating a defensive position in the village ahead.
*
*
A tank company is dispatched in order to deal with the roadblock. They are supported by some Calliope rockets mounted on Shermans and have two heavily armored "jumbo" tanks to lead their column and draw enemy fire. Sadly, the heavy combat on the Roer river has depleted the ranks of their infantry, so be careful not to lose too many of them! 
A provisional platoon of African-American troops is on its way to reinforce the depleted troop.

Historical Scenario, designed to be played as the Americans.

Note that your infantry is mounted on the tanks at the beginning of the scenario, so be careful where you drive!
