Scenario Cass002

*A night time scenario with a fight to eliminate a bridgehead. Victory conditions for a four hex radius around the hex number 2728 bridgehead and eliminated enemy steps. The Americans defend with a weaker force. The Germans have flares to illuminate their way and the Americans have smoke to block their way.

*This was kind of interesting using flares and smoke to counter the flares. The problem is, it’s easier to succeed at rolling for flares then it is for smoke and the Germans have both the higher morale and the higher Initiative. The Germans use the nighttime darkness to position, for their all out attack, light up the area with flares and give it a few rounds of both on & off board artillery, not to mention a good dose of direct fire. *The end result was a major German victory but a fun little scenario to play anyway, especially on the big Cassino hexes.
