The LDF setup their forces in the town as well as a U-shaped defensive ring around the airport, both key Soviet objectives for this scenario. Instead of taking the direct path to the airport, which they would have had to fight thru the town, the Soviets worked their way along the east side of the map to confront the LDF on more equal terms out in the open. The Soviets made short work of the dug in LDF troops to capture the airport then began advancing to secure four town hexes. A company of Lithuanian regulars arrived late and tried to recapture the airport but failed against Soviet HMG, mortar fire and reduced step infantry platoons that broke up the attack.
Enjoyed the scenario but could see how a different leadership draw & flip as well as different dice could make this a 3 for others.
