BATTLE SUMMARY

Soviets enter in the west as the Spanish open fire and do some last minute manoeuvring to cut them off.

Soviet cavalry enters in the east to assist. Spanish Infantry Gun is hit and eliminated by Soviet artillery. Soviets begin slipping past but lose 6 of their units. Pursuing Spanish motorcycles are disrupted by Soviet artillery

Soviets break past the Spanish in the north and south. Their cavalry continues their charge across the open.

Spanish on Motorcycles pursue as the Soviets focus on moving eastward with the 46th. Spanish Ski Company eliminates two more platoons and their LT. Cavalry charge!

Soviets are 45 minutes away from exiting.

Soviet cavalry charges but is slaughtered by the awaiting Spanish. They lose a platoon and a half of horses, but the 46th reaches the eastern edge and begins to exit the map.

By turn 12 Soviets have exited 2 units, with another 4 to exit next turn and the Spanish concede victory.

SOVIET VICTORY!!!

Aftermath

This was a very fun scenario, but very hard for the Spanish to stop everyone. Perhaps a solid line across would have been more efficient forcing the Soviets to try to get past within 200m range. The Soviet OBA really makes this one unfair, and I suggest you may choose not to use it at all if playing competitively.

Scenario Rating: 4/5. This is a hard one to rate. The victory condition seems impossible for the Spanish and I can’t imagine them achieving more than a draw. But it is so fun shooting at morale 5 reduced platoons that the victory conditions hardly matter. I’ll give it a 4/5 for fun!
