Turn 52 German 6pm Night 

Turn back from Michael. No mention of last turns losses, or of giving up. His results this turn were pretty good although he has gained no further ground and actually pulled back in certain places. He has NOT pulled back at Spa which is a surprise. He has also made a surprise foray in the south with some Panzer Lehr armour.

The only thing that he mentions is that the MUD has definitely hampered his attacks. I'll check the historical weather but I think the battle actually did have a few prolonged periods of soft/mud weather.

Anyway the VP screen looks  as below -



US lost - 447 men
           - 8 vehicles 

Germans lost - 51 men
                      3 guns
                      1 vehicle

He gained 53 VP's. So on paper it was a good turn for him. I've not watched the replay just ran the turn on and looked at VP and Command Reports. Will watch replay and start posting maps. Not much to see in most cases just artillery so should be quick.
