IF you are cautious as the German you will get a draw. IF you aren't you COULD get a win. The Germans will have to bypass some of the Soviet positions on the way to the bridge if they stand a chance to get across and get into the town. On a greater strategic basis the risk is worth it. Even if the Germans get trapped in Borisov the Soviets will have to retreat to the east or be bottled up. As a result, the victory conditions correctly reflect the strategic reality. As a player in the game though, the idea of leaving intact enemies to my rear is scary. Nice balance between the strategic reality and the tactical situation. Add to that the fact that this is a blast to play and has real replay value as well. It gets a five.
