Bulge 16.01s alt

[Plain Ian]

turn 54 German - Spa



Last map showing Indragnirs turn. A lot of units but not much action really. As usual I've listed all his units. I've also decided to start using the Disrupt highlight function in PzC so disrupted units are red.......a bit of a duh moment when I realised I should have ben doing this to start with.

His Spa force (I) lashed out against the 1-36th causing heavy casualties....well I thought they were.  This efffectively finishes the 1-36th's contribution to the Battle of the Bulge for a few days I would think. Look for them sometime after Christmas folks. I was heartened to see some artillery and return fire in the action so they di not get away Scot Free. (which as a Scottish person I don't understand where this phrase comes from?)

The 1-117th stacked with the 1-36th has a fatigue of 70-80 I think but is disrupted.

He moved another Pioneer into the stack (D) and it or the unit already there lost 3 men to opp fire.

Stack (B) starteda fight with the 1-517th and came out winners but not by much. US artillery did its bit again and the paras shot back at last. 

Lastlt some artillery fell on the 2-517th as they are standing out in Clar terrain.

And that was that. Indragnir has mentioned that he is reinfocing this area but I do not detect this? I see SS PzIV's in stack (G) which is to support his Falschirmjaegers and I think they are new?

The KG Hansen stack [C] looks to have been reinforced but I think this is Cesar pulling the old breakdown trick on me again? (anyone know how to get C to print in brackets without getting the trade mark sign?)

So everything looking rosey at Spa????
