Playing this one over VASSAL (lovely program) and have finished up turn 5. Things are looking bad for my UK troops and good for the US. If the UK can hold on and push the Germans back from the beaches it will be slog. If not it will be over soon. Lots of mistakes with the UK and a couple of bad DR (compensated by good DR on the US side) caused the mess there.
Slow month, news is getting to me so I took awhile to posting this and am keeping details at a minimum.
This is the picture at the end of the game. The US started off to the left and the Germans one hex over from there (the two lines). Two M10s and a Crocodile (on loan from the UK) with a bunch of troops versus nearly as many defenders with a 40ll and an AA gun (off to the right). This is where the game was called. The US had to capture both of the buildings in the red circle and it was looking like a good chance till this turn. My Germans folded up like a wet book the turn before but then most of them made their Rally attempts and this turn when the US pushed they were broken, pinned, and blown up on every DR. Down at the bottom a HS get a 2-2 and 1-2 shot pinning the first guy and DMing the second. Up where the tank is destroyed there is a mine in the road, every US squad that went in to clear it was DMd. Finally another tank went to cross the bocage and bogged.
