Here's a good scenario for the mission.

There are:
- Sherman (M4A1/Jumbo?)
- P-47
- APC M-10
During the begining of March, s.Pz.Jäg.Abt.653 was refitted with repaired Jagdtigers while waiting for orders. 03.11.1945, the unit actually reached its maximum capacity. On the night between 03.15-03.16.45, s.Pz.Jäg.Abt.653 was involved in heavy combat. On 03.15, the Allies had bombarded and afterwards attacked the German positions, and s.Pz.Jäg.Abt.653 was sent out to counter-attack the Allied forces. Neither the Allies, not the Germans, could go anywhere, and both sides received heavy losses. The Jagdtigers inflicted heavy casualties among the Allied tanks and infantry, but Allied artillery took several hits, and the Germans needed to tow 21 Jagdtigers away. Later that month, it was proved that the 12,8 cm Pak 80 was capable of taking out Allied tanks at ranges up to 4,000 meters. An Allied Sherman column was all, but destroyed by heavy fire, while the Sherman crews panicked. Having called in air support, s.Pz.Jäg.Abt.653 had to retreat as P-47s showed up. 5 Jagdtiger were hit, of which 4 were destroyed. To save s.Pz.Jäg.Abt.653 from more losses, it was withdrawed from the front. Meanwhile, several Jagdtigers were destroyed by Allied infantry and tanks, of which one was destroyed by point-blank range by 3 Shermans. At Neustadt, 3 Jagdtigers did manage to take out 25 M10s and Shermans, and although the Jagdtigers took several hits, they didn't suffer any casualties, and were able to withdraw.
