Scenario RoSo004

Romanian Soil has had some pretty nice scenarios so far in my previous plays, so I had a go at this quick one mapper.

Setting this one up, I felt this would be a good solo scenario as the Russians pretty much defend. The Germans only have Engineers but 9 counters worth and one 20mm AA gun, three SPW 251, some off board artillery and one mean Sargent with an attack factor of 2, as all the rest of their forces are transportation types and leaders. The Soviets have a mixed bunch of Infantry types and heavy weapon units which included a couple of Gun types with a small dose off board artillery. A kind of strange matchup!

The Germans were able to enter the southern edge of the map and take the first town hex on the hill with only losing one step of halftracks, then they regrouped and attacked the large town below, taking three more town hexes while only losing another step of engineers. The Soviets lost 9 steps but still held 4 town hexes. The German get those nice one column modifiers with Engineer units in assault combat. The Germans also get three points for controlled town hexes verses two points for the Soviets. This was a major German victory.
