Scenario InUn002

Played ftf agains Matt W in less than 2 hours.

I like scenarios with multiple objectives and the level of victory determined by the number of objectives attained. The Indians have 4 objectives in this one and must attain at least 3 to win.

Time is critical in this one as the Indians infantry have to beat some Razakars out of a forest and then help in assaulting a distant town. The Sherman must also eliminate the Stag as their high movement factor means they can potentially steal 2 victory conditions away from the Indians should one is in good order late in the game.

Matt set up problems which I did not solved and his Razakars earned a major victory.

Having said that, I think it's possible for the Indians to earn a victory but it will be a real challenge against a good defender.

I really enjoyed the different challenges of this scenario and give it a strong "4". It's one scenario where both sides have to make decisions almost every turn. I suspect it plays even better via PBEM because of the limited number of units and the importance of each decision.
