How do i crack this nut? (Bulge '44 Getting Started Scenerio)

[Mr Grumpy]

Indeed I have had some opponents be quite indignant when they have lost a game having held most of the vp locations, but to do so they threw everything into the front line including HQ units and artillery batteries, some loaded hex’s with so many units they could not retreat after losing an assault incurring even more losses and allowed units to be surrounded as it bought time having them eliminated, just about anything other than give ground.
