This is the quickest into combat PG scenario played to date (not that we have played that many), the Ethiopian forces set up within two hexes of the Italian's who are more numerous but do not have as good morale as the Ethiopians.

The Italians won the initiative 8 of 12 turns which allowed them to hold their own in the early part of the scenario but it was in the assault that the Ethiopians finally got the upper hand and began to take their toll on the Italian forces.

Once the Ethiopians had eliminated the steps necessary for victory they began to withdraw, what Italian forces that were not disrupted or demoralized tried to pursue and engage but it was during this pursuit that the Ethiopians started to win the initiative only to get away with no more step losses and seal their victory.
