Ouren, Belgium [Best played against Human] The 560. Volksgrenadier Division failed to take the Ouren bridges on the first day of Operation Wacht am Rhein. The American 112th Infantry was attacked brutally by "Stosstruppen" and artillery barrages, but held the bridges and maintained a line east of the Our along the Westwall. On the 17th, Generaloberst Walter Krueger, LVIII Panzerkorps, decided to attack with the 116. Panzer Division. The Lützkampen-Sevenig area was the initial Schwerpunkt. With additional artillery and panzergrenadier support, could the "Windhund" Division quickly get across the Our to make up for lost time?

Very entertaining historical scenario. Short and cruel. It should be noted that it is best played as part of David Galster's series on the 116th in the Ardennes to get a good conception of the context in which this battle was fought.
Played with EA off.
