Day Seven is September 19th, 1944.  Can the Germans maintain their counterattack?  Can the US defend Stolberg?

Combat Command A of the US 3rd Armoured try a spoiling attack.
It goes horribly wrong.

6th Panzer counterattack and throwback CCA.

6th Panzer then try an attack on Stolberg (it covers seven hexes).
It convinces the US to abandon the forward parts of the town (two hexes).

Then the German 12th Infantry Division starts its attack.
While results are mixed it creates an opportunity.

A follow up attack is made on Stolberg to take advantage of the opportunity,
but it fails to achieve anything.

The rest of the day is spent by both sides trying to reorganize units.

Situation at the end of the day from the US position.
Their left is covered by a RCT of the 1st Division,
but their right is at risk of being enveloped
