Sounds like le Mesnil Patry based on the date. Are you sure about the American MMG? If so I'm guessing it must be a dismount from a knocked out Sherman....

S63 - Nothing Left to Lose - This one ya gotta see - SS vs Russkis, Infantry, MGs, 4 tanks each side, a 10-2 Russian leader with 4 comrades helping him twenty squads plus MGs and DCs and the kind of OBA that you get in Starter Kit. Russians win by Controlling building L5, all in 6.5 turns. This one is played most of board z, with large numbers of SSRs to keep us confused.

No, it's an American MMG, all assembled and everything, in Brit colours.

Nothing on the ASL/ASLSK scenarios, but there is a long article on Russian Deployments in Red Barricades by Vincent Maresca.

Moving on,,,
O15 - Highland Park -- Brits vs the Hermann Goering Division, summer of 1943. Germans have infantry and guns (and mines!), Brits have Infantry and vehicles. Brits have 6 turns to Control 4 multi-hex bldgs on boards 13 and 60.

O16 - Forced Crossing - Russians vs. Germans, October '44 Germans have some infantry and a Kfz1 (that's about it!). Russians have a large infantry force in three groups, which must ensure there are no GO Germans west of the river. 6 turns, Falling Snow, Ground Snow.

Counter fixes for some MMP stuff might be nice too. A Victory Denied/Complete (and MMP), I am looking at you!

Gentlemen

Looks like some errata with S63. There is no Russian 10-2 in any of the published SKs and only 6x 6-2-8, I think the scenario calls for 10 (not sure on exact #). Hopefully MMP will chime on on one of the forums and issue errata/corrections as needed.

Thanks

Maybe they were thinking you already had BV.
