Setup: I thought about this for a long time. I set MG34 to AMBUSH and kept them at the BACK of the house. The Command Team and MG42 were in 3 story bldgs.

All teams set to AMBUSH. It didn't take long for US troopers to arrive!

The American advance begins to take shape. The lead team hugs the ground as they approach the first house...……………… I debated whether or not to open up...

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 9:42:15 AM)

US troopers come into range and AD-Hoc opens up on their own!

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 9:56:36 AM)

I decided to pull AD-Hoc out, once the mortars began to fall.

Meanwhile on the other side of the map, Light AA gun began to take mortar fire!

Overview:
It turns out that Light AA had been firing at advancing US troopers! While I was busy with the center, things were beginning to heat up for MG34!

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 11:05:37 AM)

The situation as I first found it. I ended up spending a lot of time at this location!

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 11:38:18 AM)

Meanwhile, back in the CENTER the repositioned AD-Hoc team had taken casualties. With the mortars still dropping, US teams skirt the middle and head south!

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 11:54:14 AM)

US Troopers take the corner. Some of the units that move to the south will eventually encounter a fleeing (AA) crew member!

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 12:26:29 PM)

Farmhouse: American casualties mount but eventually overwhelm the Germans. I'm virtually certain I witnessed a stun grenade attack. The two unconscious crew members eventually regained consciousness and began fighting again!

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 12:33:09 PM)

The American's advance in the north gets halted and reversed! MG42 controls area..

Light AA begins direct fire attack against US held building and later defends against advancing forces.

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 1:37:22 PM)

German morale began falling. I spent a lot of time watching this crew run across the map!

jhyden -> RE: GGC 9.17@1500 hrs: B#8 Groesbeek (11/12/2019 1:57:32 PM)

As they ran across the map, they encountered US direct fire and only one member survives!

Overview: Things became very quiet for a prolonged period. German morale continued to fall. I decided to see if I could withdraw off the map!

I was unable to leave the map and double checked the manual.
