The first attack by the Canadians into the German flank goes in
The main thrust goes into the German lines but is suffering heavy return fire
The first wave gets bogged down in the wood and in front of the house below
This house has been constantly fought over during the whole game. Each time the British and Canadians hit the house, they clear it, but are unable to occupy it, which the Germans simply keep pouring troops into it.
Over the course of a week, Ian and I have been playing this game. I have just thrown in the British 7th Armored division into the German rear.
So far, Ian has lost most of his German mortars, he has been relying on his mortars for artillery support, and has been successful in using his armor to smash back my infantry assualts. The front line areas have not been secured for the Allies. However, the Canadians have run out of armor and are using the last of their reserves.
The 7th Armored Division arrived to assist the Canadians and eventually became the only cohesive unit left.

The remaining infantry and anti-tank gun await orders
