Scenario WhEa019

Map arrangement in book is wrong. It should be four maps setup in a vertical rectangle as follows: Top: 18 and 19, both upright, Bottom: 17 and 15, both upright. Set up Germans in town on roads on all boards. Poles entered on south part of east edge using fields and trees to cover their approach. The Poles surrounded the eastern town on board 17, but the Germans put up a stubborn fight. Ten turns into the game there was still an assault going on in the town while some Polish units had advanced to the western town. The German artillery decimated the Polish cavalry but they were finally able to wrest control of the western town away by turn 21. In the end there wasn't time to capture both roads. A major victory in this scenario for the Poles would be a tough nut to crack as there doesn't appear to be enough time. Regarding victory in general, the Germans held on for a narrow 18-17 minor victory. The German artillery proved to be too much.
