A strong Soviet mixed arms force easily overran the German blocking force. Since the victory conditions awarded points to the Soviets for control of the two towns and the highway, I set up the Germans primarily in the town and fields on board 04, with infantry, heavy MGs and AT guns in the town and a smaller infantry force, MGs and the mortars set up in the fields, to try to hold the town or delay the Soviets as much as possible. I also set up infantry concealed in the fields next to the road on board 05 and in the town on board 03, to be prepared when the Soviets pushed past the positions on board 04. The The Russians relied on their large contingent of T34s and K1s to disrupt and demoralize the German forces in the town on board one and to suppress the guns and mortars in the fields north of the town. The Germans had no answer to the Soviet tanks, as the German ATs and IGs were not strong enough to pierce the German armor, even at a range of 1. Once sufficient German troops in the town had been disrupted or demoralized, the Soviets then captured the town through combined tank and infantry assaults. The Soviets then focused on the German forces in the fields. By turn 15, the Soviets had complete control of the town on board 04 and the remaining German troops on that board were in flight. While part of the Soviet forces pursued fleeing Germans, the bulk of the Soviet forces then proceeded down the highway to push the German infantry on board 05 away from the highway and pin the German infantry on board 03 in place. I halted the game after turn 25, as there was no possibility that the Germans could prevent a major Soviet victory. I do not see how the Germans could win this scenario. I The Soviet tanks and higher moral give them an insuperable advantage, notwithstanding that the Soviets have no artillery and my leader draw did not include any combat or morale leadership factors, until I received one with reinforcements.
