Scenario AFro003

If you have played the scenario in Arctic Front Deluxe realize that this is an entirely different situation and feel than that one. The only similarity is the title.

A small battalion of Soviets must negotiate the length of the board and exit while a smaller group of Finns are charged with the task of eliminating the Soviets entirely. Since the soviets start out with a positional advantage the Finns have some hard work even keeping the Soviets on the board. Ultimately this one will come down to initiative rolls and the Soviets ability to get away from assaults. If the Soviets are caught they will not survive (the bonus for Finnish infantry in assault is critical). In my case a group of 3 full strength platoons was caught and assaulted by two Finnish platoons near the board edge. The Soviet commander left the assault hex with two platoons to exit the board but the Soviets could not get the 5th and 6th step off board.

This is a quick play scenario but it seems wired to have a draw. If the Soviets spread out the Finns do not have enough time to kill them all while the Soviets do not have the leadership to get enough units to exit. I give it a "2".
