Assault on the 105s!
Assault on the 105s! is a solitaire wargame designed by Hans Gem.
The game depicts the outnumbered yet bold assault by soldiers of E-Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Regiment, 101st Airborne Division during World War II—the attack on Brecourt Manor on June 6, 1944. This historical encounter is used at West Point as a classic example of command art and assault on fixed positions, and is also portrayed in Stephen E. Ambrose’s book "Band of Brothers" and the eponymous HBO series.
