| American front line |
It has been a long time since I played any Flames of War to rectified this I volunteered Fons to try out the Pieper’s charge mini campaign. Fons has been promoted to Oberst and has an armoured column of 35(!) armoured vehicles with limited support, his orders are simple ie drive like a bat out of hell, break through the American lines and cross the Meuse.

| Panzers make their first move |
Game one saw the column engaging the first line of the american defense consisting of some under strength platoons of infantry reinforced with some tank destroyers and some tanks. Resistance was minimal with the line breaking at the cost of two panzer IV’s and half a platoon is panzer grenadiers but the kampfgruppe can not replace its losses while the American resistance is increasing the further they go. I am looking forward to seeing if Fons can change history

Interesting. Great scenario. At the last HMGS-PSW convention our group ran the full Battlefront Peiper's Charge scenario across three tables using Ver 3.0 MRB and Devils Charge. The AAR write up just posted to the Wargamerabbit blog.
Hi Micheal, I saw the terrain articles they are any interesting read, I think a Vauban themed fortress may be on the agenda for next year. Do you by any chance have a rules set for 17th-18th century sieges. I know Christopher Duffy's book had an rule set in the appendix but it would be nice to know more.
