AAR: Eagles Strike - Buchholz Station

[Rabbit]

Turn 4 US:


START OF TURN:



Moved units onto the entire ridge in the lower left-hand corner. It is very hard to assault uphill, so claiming the whole ridge should make it very challenging on the Germans to take the top of the ridge.

The US forces opened fire in the upper front as well as in the middle front, ambushing a couple of German squads in open ground. This resulted in pinning some of the German forces in addition to getting a couple of kills. The Germans automatically fired back and were able to pin some of the US forces. Definitely a worthwhile trade-off from the US perspective as that should help stall the German advance.

Overall, the upper and middle fronts seem in decent shape for the US. As such, I have started to move a squad and a leader (currently just to the left of the industrial hexes) from the right-hand side down the middle road towards the lower left-hand front since that seems to be where the Germans are spearheading their assault.
