In picture 4 above, the 57mm AT gun is placed behind a roadblock. The dark green counters are minefields (some are dummies). Eric mounted all his infantry identically on the stands and then made "entrenchment overlays" to place on them when they dig in.

5) Attacking up the rail line to St. Vith, the Germans are stunned when two Ami 57mm AT guns kill the lead Jagdpanzer VI. At the site marked in red, there is a "Dead Cat" marker showing it's final resting place. (Diceman did it!!)
