Setup: Neither the Soviets or Americans begins on the map, therefore neither side begins setup.

Play: The Soviets scramble onto the map and take up defensive positions within the towns on Boards 20 and 17, forcing the Americans to waste precious time advancing all the way across the map. Once the Americans reach the Soviet perimeter, two of the M39's are destroyed by the gunboats. The Americans quickly retaliate by sinking the two Soviet gunboats while approaching the Soviet lines in the north.

The Americans send a smaller force south to capture an abandoned two hex town, and to prevent and counterattacks by the Soviets against the main American force. The Americans waste no time in assaulting the northern town, but are slowly ground down by the Soviet SMG's and T-44's in the town. After about four turns of continuous assaults, the Americans gain a foothold and the Soviet defense collapses.

The Soviets attempt an counterattack from the south, but the southern American force intercepts them, and repulses them. The American's northern force begins to recover and swings the their good order forces south, but the game ends before the Americans are able to launch an attack against the Soviet positions in the South.

Result: American Major Victory. The Victory Point Count stands at 42-68, with the Americans having a 16 point lead.
