The Axis set up on the western 40 meter ridge with three entrenchments and another in 0405. The 81mm is set up dug in at the eastern 40 mm hill.

The Marines assaulted the western 40mm ridge. Right off the bat they got a tremendous advantage when, on first contact, both Axis 75/88 batteries were knocked out by direct fire. The Allies instantly assaulted and gained two trenches. Then on a special event (my personal favorite piece of chrome)the Allied victory conditions were reduced to capturing only one trench. Thus putting the Allies in a winning position by just 45 min (three turns) in.

Over the course of the next several turns the Axis attempted some counter assaults. Despite the Axis assault column modifier bonus, all these attacks were beaten off with loss. We called it off at 16:45 as the Axis had no chance on regaining their lost entrenchments.

I give this a 4 even though it turned out kinda lopsided. It would be unlikely that any replay would eliminate BOTH 75/88 Batteries, in one turn no less. Setting up, the cardboard Marines got a bloody noses just looking at the 75/88 counters. Truly, on the tactical level, there is no replacement for firepower.
