Scenario EFDx021

Okay, every now and then the random event will result in some odd situations. In this one the Soviets threw themselves into the central fields of the battle, the Germans set up a large tank trap and both sides began bleeding. Due to the impetuous attack the Germans had reached their victory level by turn 7 when the random event removed the Soviet's geographic objective. "No, not that town, this one!!!!". Learned some lessons, however, about the fragility of the Soviet leadership in the early war. One Soviet leader routed away and an entire wing of the formation was stuck without the ability to move. A similar thing almost happened with the tank leaders as well. The scenario is better than this play permitted given the random event. I will probably come back to it if I live long enough. I only have another 1,280 to play before I have to repeat... As a result of the potential I give it a four.
