Scenario WotE003

Played this one with Mike Volpe at a con near Kansas City back in 2009 (date is approximate). I set up in the towns near the coast and positioned my other forces north of the road. His trucks entered on the southern edge, and I held position until it was clear that he was making for the northern road. At that point, I deployed my forces along the road in three layers, digging them in to set up roadblocks. Mike chose to assault each roadblock frontally, and that worked on the first two. But the third roadblock held and demoralized his elite attackers. That sealed the fate of the Peruvians, who were never able to regroup and take the coastal town so the marines could land. But it could have gone either way, and it was fun game.

You played this fully five years before it was published?

Whoops! You're right. I should have said 2009. Note to self -- never write these things late at night with no coffee . . . :-)
