Medal of Honor Winners While fighting in the Anzio beachhead members of the 3rd Infantry Division received 16 Medals of Honor (four alone on the first day of Operation Buffalo). All told, by the end of the war, the 3rd Infantry Division had 36 Medal of Honor winners in their ranks. Right: Chris' Medal of Honor winner in action.

In Turn Four Chris launched an assault with one of his platoons near the vineyards on the German left flank, however he made a slight miscalculation and drew in the PaK 40 platoon. The combined defensive fire was more than enough to pin down the attacking Assault Platoon. Thanks to the Medal of Honor special rules though he was able to continue the assault and even managed to knock out one of the German FlaK halftracks. The defending German infantry platoon took the opportunity to Counter Assault and whilst this normally would have done enough to cripple an American platoon, the over-sized Assault platoon in Dogs and Devils was able to soak up the casualties and come back with enough numbers to wipe out the defending Germans.

Medal of Honor Winners Special Rules While fighting in the Anzio beachhead members of the 3rd Infantry Division received 16 Medals of Honor (four alone on the first day of Operation Buffalo). All told, by the end of the war, the 3rd Infantry Division had 36 Medal of Honor winners in their ranks. Whenever an Assault or Rifle Platoon from the 3rd Infantry Division is pinned by Defensive Fire in an Assault, roll a die. On a roll of 3+, one Pioneer Rifle or Rifle team in contact with the enemy does not Fall Back when the rest of the platoon Falls Back. This potential Medal of Honor team may continue the Assault. The Medal of Honor team in contact with the enemy now assaults, hitting on a 2+.

Enemy platoons do not need to make a Motivation Test to Counterattack if only assaulted by a Medal of Honor team. Regardless of whether or not the Medal of Honor team was hit in the enemy Counterattack, you must take a Motivation Test to Counterattack. If the platoon passes, the whole platoon may Charge into Contact and continue the assault as normal. The Medal of Honor team has finished its heroics and reverts to a normal team for the rest of the assault. Otherwise, the Medal of Honor team Breaks Off, returning to the platoon and reverting to a normal team.
