2022-01-12(D) Will Willow vs E. Cameron German winWent to the last turn and the French melted away in the VC hex. Germans never got their OBA and suffered only 16CVP. The tank was immobilized early and in a spot that precluded it from being effective for the end game. The French just didn't shoot well enough.
2021-03-20(A) Asad Rustum vs Jörn Helms German win
2020-09-09(D) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best French winThe Germans came at the French hard and lost three trucks, the tank and the INF gun by turn three. There were some well placed bore sighted hexes that the Germans walked into. The CVP cap was reached by turn 6.
