Korean War: Pusan Perimeter, scenario #41: In Front of Chinju

An interest scenario. The Americans have one force in retreat, entering the north edge of the map followed by the closing North Koreans and a second group of Americans already on the map holding the line but having difficulty firing on these mixed groups of friendly and enemy soldiers.

It was chaos from the start of the scenario until the end. One group of the retreating Americans entered the closest city a good choice while the other two stacks make a run for their secondary lines in the open terrain instead of the hills, a bad choice. The North Korean followed closely with both groups and had better success in the open terrain, not only that but they had artillery support of a total of 38 points, while the Americans had none. During the battle the NKPA rolled a 2 once and a 12 once with their artillery giving them 2 extra points of eliminated American steps and most likely a victory instead of a draw.

The NKPA get a minor victory by one point, if not for the good artillery dice rolls and the one group of Americans retreating in the open, I am pretty sure this would have been a draw. Certainly worth playing again someday to find out and an interesting situation to play.
