Bulge 16.01s alt

[Plain Ian]

Turn 42 - Elsenborn



Michael used mostly artillery, mainly against the 2-38th and 3-395th.

D company 38th Cavalry was also heavily shelled losing several armoured cars.

D company 743rd Tnk Bn came under heavy fire from StuG's of 3rd PGD and 12th SS PD. (the only 12SS unit left in the area?) It was badly battered and lost 5 tanks.

Edit: I've added orange unit numbering to show units which are just about 'red' fatigued. (180+)

During my turn I withdrew all units which had been attacked and reinforced the Sourbrodt area. 703TD and 745th Tanks moved up. The 2-18th (fresh 0 Fatigue and B Morale) attacked his Pioneers.

2nd Combat Engineers unfortunately were Disrupted attempting an attack on 12th VGD.

1-16th also did well but this is the best unit in this area.

Probe at Hofen is slightly worrying but I've already decided to give up Monschau if he comes after it.
