Hinrichs is starting to regain conciousness, his men are moving to help him. However, he isn't thinking straight yet and is unable to make sound tactical decisions for the next few minutes, and his men realise this. Furthermore, he will require help moving.

[OOC: Sorry, had to work a 48 hour and then got caught up with something called sleep. Sorry for the wait! Also the American in the building across from the Germans is dead, correct?]
Shit had really hit the fan now for both sides as Matthaeus had slipped and fallen on a patch of black ice, probably the same one the American had slipped on, and lost his consciousness temporarily. With that, Hunz had already taken off, in pain, to the building that was their fall back point. He would most likely seek help once in there. The other two privates, Fiend and Fresh had gone towards Matthaeus to help their leader back to the fall back point.
As this happened Matthaeus began to regain consciousness as the Germans began to lead him to the building. As he stumbled over he began to think of ideas for this. They couldn’t retreat, and the Germans still had the advantage in this battle.
As they reached the building, Matthaeus’s men set him down towards the corner where he could regain his total state of mind and access the situation. The German Privates had already taken initiative as the Machine Gunner continued to suppress the Americans, and now Fiend was helping Hunz with patching up his wounds with the standard infantry medical kit.
Blue lines are the area that the MG is firing in back and forth
Now that Fiend was nearly patched up, and Matthaeus had begun to regain his state of mind, Matthaeus moved his arm towards his last grenade and put his hand on it. Fresh understood what Matthaeus was trying to do, and took the grenade and approached the window that the Machine gunner was firing out of quickly. The window was large and had enough room for Fresh to throw the grenade out of quickly.
Fresh made sure he stayed bellow the window so that the Americans couldn’t see him there and wouldn’t know that the grenade was coming. With that, he followed the standard German grenade procedure, unscrew the bottom and pull the cord to arm it. Once again Fresh cooked the grenade for two seconds before launching it out the window and towards the two Americans at the corner of the building across from the Germans. It wasn’t too long before he heard the large explosion from the grenade, a sound that he had become used to now.
Pink is the Grenade's path and the blue lines are the same as before.

Actions. The Germans managed to fall back, holding position in the building as the MG42 fired.
But with a sudden click, the MG stopped firing. After prolonged bursts of fire, there is no more ammunition, the weapon becoming useless.
The Americans took this as their chance, leaning around the side of the building and laying down rifle fire towards the Germans, semi-automatic weapons providing a deadly volume of fire towards any movement in the window.
With Hinrichs unable to bolster his men, they refused to throw the grenade, instead taking cover and exchanging the occasional volley of rifle fire. MAP Next Post:[/u]Johnson[/color]

Nathan, according to your previous Mod post, the American private in the building is dead. Is that true? If so, could we take him off the map, for less confusion?
Alot has has gone on as the American soldier stood with his men shocked. The Germans had attempted to throw a grenade at him but failed. But the soldier located in the building's fate was different fate. The grenade had entered the building and blew him up, leaving him dead. Now Brooks and a good two men was down, it was all up to Johnson to make something happen as he knew the morale around here was drooping. He did not have time to think as a group of German soldiers were now charging at him, surprised he fired from the hip and was able to land a couple of shots.
He did not look back as he ran around the corner to the remaining men. Who were being fired upon by the enemy's MG gunner. His men was glad to see him alive but focused on the MG gunner. Then lucked finally kicked in for the three as the gunner stopped firing upon them. Likely to have ran out of ammo from all the firing. "Okay we have a chance here, Desola come with me" Johnson ordered. He then signaled Beck to lay fire upon the building as a distrcation. Beck looked like he got the message as he fired at the window of the house, and Desola followed Johnson.
Johnson walked silently around the house to the opening corner. He peeked around the corner and could see inside the building, and a soldier standing inside. Johnson to Desola to aim at that soldier and fire when he signaled him. Desola watched and raised his rifle to watch Johnson back as he walked as silently as he could, and as fast as he could without breaking that silence. He stood on the wall near a window, then he raised his hand and ordered Desloa to fire. As soon as he ordered he stuck his gun in the window and fired at the enemy. Thhen quickly returned to cover.
At the request of the combatants, this battle has ended due to inactivity.
