Ardennes'44 via Vassal Day Three and Four

Morning December 18th

The two images don't quite align, but the extent of the German advance can be seen.
The US airborne troops are being trucked in,
but Bastogne has fallen.


Afternoon December 18th


 Desperate attacks of the 5th Panzer Army

Desperate attacks of the 6th Panzer Army.

 An attempt to show the "big picture"

Same image, but without the scribble.

The 7th Army (left flank)

The 5th Panzer Army (centre).
Their attacks met with some success.

The 6th Panzer Army (right flank)
Limited success.

This turn is Game Turn 6 and the Germans would win the short scenario as they currently hold 10 Victory Points worth of locations (the red outlined hexes).  But I'm playing the campaign game...

Morning December 19th

 The 5th Panzer Army is suffering fuel shortages.
Its attacks mostly produced engaged results.

The 6th Panzer Army's attacks just produced engaged results, but at the cost of some losses.


Afternoon December 19th

The 7th Army receives reinforcements and renews the attack.

 5th Panzer Army is bogged down with fuel shortages.

6th Panzer army batters away,
it had more success this time.

The big picture at the end of the day.
