Overview:

"There Once was a Little Column..." -- In the Bastogne sector as elsewhere, the Ardennes offensive was now marking time. Fierce American resistance and German tactical errors were allowing the 101st Airborne to arrive just in time. At dawn of the 20th of December, the 2nd Battalion relieved the exhausted defenders of the village of Marvie. A platoon of light tanks from Team O’Hara of the 10th Armored Division reinforced the glider troops. As well, two Shermans were posted on the heights to the north. At 1125, the M5s and the village began taking fire from armored vehicles in the woods to the east. After having lost one machine, the commander of the light tanks asked for and received permission to withdraw. The German column continued its advance on the village, but without having spotted the Shermans. . .
Attacker: German (2nd Battalion, 130th Panzer Regiment, 902nd Panzer Brigade and 243rd Stürmschütz Brigade, Panzer Lehr Division)

2020-04-04(A) Rich Weiley vs Dave Wilson German winVirtual Paddington Bearz -April 2020 due to the Corona Virus. Pretty easy win for the Germans. Only luck the US had was passing their task checks to prevent the light tanks withdrawing.
2019-01-11(A) Jeff B vs Phil Wentworth German win0.5 hrsBoth 2nd Level occupied hexes got smoked in and one M5A1 destroyed on the opening turn. The rest failed their TC and were immediately recalled. There was really no reason to play the rest as it was a foregone conclusion the Germans would easily win. I am not sure how this scenario shows a balanced win/loss. The only possible way the Americans can win is hiding all M5A1s at start, but even then I think their chance is slim.

Contains an interesting SSR for the American Stuarts. Whenever any of them are desroyted, the others need to take a MC to avoid being immediatly recalled. My opponet tried to use them offensively to go after loaded German HT (with mixed success)
