A number of objectives in this one, all for the Germans, who need to accomplish 3 or more in order to win the scenario. The Soviet T34 & BT tanks ran flat out with their Tankodesantniki troops hanging on for dear life as they raced to capture the bridge & town on map 3 before the rest of the 9th Panzer entered the game in force (turn 3) thus denying two of the four VCs that the Germans needed to win, if they could hold. The big battle centered around the town, two companies of Tankodesantniki troops supported by a company of T34s was fending off a German infantry regiment supported by a mixed panzer battalion while they awaited the slower moving KV, T26 and T28 tanks to get into the battle. The Germans used a combination of OBA and close assault to dislodge the Soviet troops from the town, even with the arrival of Soviet tank reinforcements did not stop the German who eliminated most of the Soviet infantry, plus over half of the T34s, T26s and T28s. The only thing that stopped the Germans from capturing the bridge and clearing the road was the company of KV tanks that stood on the bridge repelling all attackers, by this time the Germans were running out of panzers, thus the scenario ended in a draw.
