Scenario EFDx033

I admit that the primary reason that I played this scenario is that I own Red Steel and love the game system. As a result, seeing the Romanian Reserve division on the board was exciting to me. It was apparently also very exciting to the Soviets who rushed onto the hill and got their tanks knocked off very quickly. Again this was very early in my playing of the system and I learned that tanks should stand off and provide cover fire for the infantry. They should not advance by themselves or they will be assaulted without infantry support and the result will be loss of tanks. I should note that the Soviets had terrible luck with initiative throughout the game but it was fun to have the 35th reserve division hold up better than in reality.
