What was your army lists? That's some heavy equipment. I'm going to link from my blog because I played through this scenario ago.
ReplyDeleteI had 4 stands of paras with a mortar, 2 mgs, one ATG and a pack howitzer. My reinforcements were 6 shermans, 1 grey hound and an FAO with 2 stands of 76mm arty on stand by.
ReplyDeleteMy opponent had more infantry, one mortar and mg. 3 hertzers, 1 open topped SPAT (I forget the name), i think 3 jadgpanzer 4s and one jadgtiger.
In points terms the Germans had 1512pts on the table and 1188pts of reinforcements. The Americans had 840pts on the table and 1160pts of reinforcements.
