Setup: The Americans hold their engineers in reserve while the rest of the paratroopers fan out across the heights of the hill, supported by the three 90mm AT guns behind each of the American defense groups. The Soviets split their forces into three as well and rush the Americas quickly to begin the fight.

Play: The Soviets survive the American OF and begin to shoot at the adjacent Americans, dug-in twenty meters above them. After only half an hour, the Soviets become impatient and begin to assault the Americans across the entire line. The initial assaults go very well for the Soviets, ducking below the Americans' first fire, and the Guards units take a toll on the American defenders.

The next hour of assaults proves to be of little gain for either side, but the Americans' 90mm's have evened the field somewhat by destroying multiple T-34/84's. The Americans begin their counterattack to eject the Soviets, but with limited success, and the defense in the west is almost completely destroyed.

The Soviets bring up fresh units, but fail to gain ground along the road and in the east, while punching through the western line. The Americans' engineers held in reserve move forward to block the Soviet Guards, but they quickly evade and scramble towards the northern edge. With the hour, twenty-two steps exit the map, and bring the Americans' VP lead from ninety to fifteen.

Although the Soviets had cut the Americans' lead by 80 percent, the remaining assaults begin to swing towards the Americans' favor, and the game ends with the Americans chasing the final Soviet Guards units down the hill back towards the south edge. The Americans stop at the base of the hill, content that the Soviets are routed.

Result: Major American Victory. The Victory Point Count stands at 70-65, with the Americans holding a 15 point lead.
