This is a small but potentially interesting scenario which pits roughly equal forces (1 tank and 1 infantry coy each) against each other for control of the road on board 6.

The initial phase of the engagement consisted of an armour skirmish which the Germans came out of better off. While this was taking place, the Soviet infantry occupied the southern woods, while thier German counterparts took those to the south. This was a mistake for both side - the open ground and reduced MA due to snow meant any unit trying to cross was heavily shot up. Meanwhile, the surviving Soviet tanks also withdrew to the woods, where they holed up.

The battle was now the Germans to lose, but they decided to secure the result by launching thier armour into the south woods and destroying the surviving Soviet tanks. This being done, the Soviet infantry were bottled up in the south woods and the game was called at turn 16 of 18.

While both sides had exceeded thier kill objectives, the Germans occupied a road hex, so claimed the victory.
