Scenario InUn009

Played in three session against Tony L, this is a poor scenario in terms of balance but gets a three because we both had a good laugh while playing. Tony has described the situation well so I won't rehash it here. I could describe how the RAZ and CAV watched three platoons of Sherman's gaily drive down the road and off the board to meet the first Indian objective with hardly a scratch on their paintwork. I could paint a picture of brave horseman galloping across the Indian plains been repeatedly strafed by Spitfires and the very occasional Tempest with the predicted results, or describe the brave attempts by Lt's 7-0-0 & 6-0-0 to lead the militia in a concerted attack while being shelled, shot at and generally discomforted by grinning Gurkha's on the hilltops surrounding the town. The highpoint was a thrilling charge uphill by the surviving Royal Bodyguard in the face of MG and Rifle fire, a glorious failure. I am sure you get the picture. ****So that's Indian Unity finished played over more than three years we both enjoyed the experience two excellent scenario's, six ok scenarios and two poor ones. I suggest playing them in chronological order to get the feel of this short war ( playing scenario 10 as the third battle). Like Tony I recommend giving this a go ****
