Turn 40 - south German Turn
Michael moved up more of Panzer Lehr this turn. Looking at what is visible I'd say that this was ALL of it. Artillery fire was low with most of it concenttrated against 90th Cav. I lost 2 armoured cars to artillery and 2 more to ground fire.
Turn 40 - south US Turn
I decided to hold my ground this turn and fire.
The Panzer Lehr infantry in the south were well targeted and the 11th Tank Bn managed 2 hits on his StuG unit.
609th TD and 2-12th also did well but I lost an M18 in return fire.
D/37 TNK moved up and found more enemy on the river by Boevange. An M5 was lost and it withdrew. I sent in 37th Tank Bn and it did quite a bit of damage. The M4 tank Bn's have a defense of 20 which hopefully means they can weather artillery well. However I know he has a company of Jagdpanzers out there which may cause problems.
4th Armoured (purple flash on bottom) now arrived. 3 tank battalions and 3 armoured infantry battalions available. There is also the Divisional tank destroyer unit 704th TD Bn but the M18 has a defensive strength of 4 so has to be used carefully.
