About Objective: Schmidt

Objective: Schmidt - The battle for Hürtgen Forest, November 2-6, 1944, is the second game in the Tactical Combat Series (TCS) by The Gamers and examines some of the most difficult infantry combat of World War II—the US 28th Division’s unsuccessful attack into the Hürtgen Forest from November 2nd to the 6th, 1944. Specifically, it focuses on the US 112th Infantry Regiment’s assault on the town of Schmidt, and the German counterattacks by the 89th Infantry and 116th Panzer Divisions. In poor weather, facing difficult terrain and determined resistance, the soldiers of the 28th Division made a gallant effort. At the cost of several thousand lives, they came close to succeeding.
