The closest I can think of to a meeting engagement would be "a Deadly Squeeze Play". Its a Wild Bill Wilder scenario and one of the best in my opinion.
Quote:On the afternoon of the 9th, Combat Command B succeeded in capturing the tiny village of Le Gue Rochoux. This placed them within three miles of the German corridor. The Germans launched a strong counterattack along the Ger-Mortain road on August 9th, to slow the fast moving tanks of the 2nd.
The first German attack ran into an infantry supported group of American tank destroyers and brought no results at all. Infantry Company B, 3rd Battalion, and 1st Platoon, Company C of the 702d TD Battalion fought them off. Five enemy tanks of the 116th Panzer Division, and a number of German infantry were left dead at the scene. There would be no breaking out here. The M-10s and the armored infantry had done their job. - WBW
