Scenario KWPP044

The North Koreas set up a defense on Board 94 defending the western high ground on the west side of the river with a blocking position at the bridge and then a reverse slope defense covering the open ground on the hill with good fields. Three hexes of the road were covered in depth with one behind the hill in the woods-road hex. Along the entire route the SMGs platoons were placed in limited terrain along road in blocking/ambush positions. The goal was to delay the Americans and then cause them to have to fight hard to clear the road at the NJK MLR.

The US moved out well and cleared the first few blocking positions with ease. But once at the main NK they were delayed getting the forward NK infantry-HMG position out of the way. Then they moved on the main line with the 75 RCL in overwatch and attempt to flank around the north. They managed to break through but not break the NK position and suffered enough casualties for a NK win. The US commander, the colonel was killed leading the final flanking attack.

This is a very good scenario. The US has firepower and mobility on its side while the North Koreans have position, terrain and time on their side. The low US casualty cap make the US player ponder each move and attack carefully.
