Overview:

On the 14th, the 3rd Spahis Brigade received orders to form a defensive line and hold the village of La Horgne, at whatever price. Without their AT weapons and low on personnel, the brigade occupied La Horgne around 4 AM on the 15th. The Spahis immediately dug in, and prepared their defenses. The erected four barricades, established fire lanes, dug trenches and foxholes, and set up their three AT guns. At dawn, the sound of motors could be heard coming from the Singly road, signaling the arrival of the Germans. . .
Attacker: German (Reinforced elements of III./Schutzenregiment 1 and Pz Aufkl. Abt. of 1.Panzerdivision XIX A.K. 9mot.) and 1./Schutzenregt 1 and Panzerbrigade 1 of 1.Panzerdivision)

2021-01-19(A) Chuck Dye vs patrickpalma French winPoor balance. The French are to strong. The ability to interdict the entry hex is to much
2021-01-19(D) patrick palma vs Chuck Dye French win
2015-07-06(A) nathan wegener vs James T French winFrench setup to stuff the entry zone with 2 MGs and the ATG. Remaining force setup to stuff reinforcement entry hexes.
Mass destruction as there is no choice but to press through as no time to wait and not enough weapons or equipment to stop the slaughter.
2011-07-24(A) nathan wegener vs Peter W French winSpent too much time trying to flank. Lost 5 AFV to mol's (You'd think I would have learned.) Got in good positions to rout him out of the village but ran out of time.
