Here is what I have done, but I am stuck when I have to probe St. Lo. The Pz V and VIs are wasting me... 1st I got my tanks to a safe spot. The rest is explained in pictures. BTW, "Well Hippen" = "Well Hidden" LOL! Well, let me know how you guys do... Carl

What worked for me was to trade in units so I had three stuarts (I'm a little foggy, I played it a week ago). Stay low on the slope initially and you MUST meet the panzers that come over the rise with all three of your stuarts at once. ALWAYS keep your tanks as far apart as you can, but still within LOS/LOF of the enemy. That American tanks suck is common knowledge, so make the Germans traverse big arcs for their easy kills. The obvious benefit is that during this time at least one stuart will have a side aspect or possibly even rear shot at a panzer. I found that attacking the hill first leads to supporting fire from the villages on either side as well as mission triggers that make it impossible to win. Take the town on the right first with infantry covered by arty. I attack with as much as I can muster to confuse enemy guns and sucker punch as Elmar describes. Any remaining stuarts are Pak 40 and PzIV bait! Let us know! Carl
