Setup: Infantry teams defend the south while MG34 covers the eastern approach into the village.

It stayed quiet for about 5 minutes then the Light AA gun (located S/E of Dommel Bridge) began to receive a few rounds of fairly accurate mortar fire w/ no casualties.

Teams of Paratroopers began advancing from the east over the bridge and into town! To conceal his position for as long as possible, I had MG34 set to ambush rather than defend. I was beginning to get nervous! (grin)

I set MG34 to DEFEND and the troops scattered. I went back to ambush again to avoid detection. As more troops entered the map I repeated: ambush/defend/ambush.

The Light AA gun had a LOS into the advance and I changed their orders to FIRE!

Bad idea! Although it caused a few casualties, it quickly attracted accurate mortar fire as well as direct fire from across the canal.

A lone survivor panicked and began to run north towards the action near the bridge.

I tried to issue an 'ambush' order so he would stop running and take refuge in a nearby shed. I lost track of him because of other pressing matters!

He eventually ended up just below the bridge girder and stayed there. He eventually perished in the upcoming cross-fire.

To the west, German infantry teams open up on an advancing group of Paratroops! The Para's eventually retreated.

German Infantry units move to reinforce!

Additional Paratroops are sent toward the bridge. MG34 defends!

I decided to send the command team to a (more) central position for a better view. At this point it was still safe to cross the street. However once they tried to establish themselves in a defensive position, they came under VERY HEAVY direct fire from the 2nd story building across the canal. I had to withdraw!

As I was moving my troops into position, with some under direct-fire, the American paratroops tried another advance on the bridge!
