PHD Game 3 TM 2

Reusing the picture from the end of the first TM.  This is third (and final) playing of this campaign.  The first two ended up as one US blowout and one German blowout.  This one ended pretty much where this first TM ended.  The US managed to get three squads across the bridge when a gap appeared in their smoke screen (two OBA modules being used to create smoke and WP to cover the bridge).  The German OBA was accurately placed in the gap between the Bridge and The building to the left when just about anywhere else would have been out of LOS (I think, would have to review - the WP might not have been enough to block LOS).  The Germans then placed a Harrasing OBA so the entire route to the bridge and the bridge itself (and one hex beyond onto the German side of the draw) was covered by the OBA.  Excellent OBA rolls and lousy MC rolls broke all the US troops on the German side of the draw and most of those in the OBA pattern on the US side including those in the stone buildings.  With that the campaign game was called as a German win.  If playing as the US don't go through the draw, take the gap around to the left instead.
