Scenario IrCu008

Setup: The Americans put their main force in the four-hex town and put forward 3 INF units and a HMG forward to the base of the southern 60-meter hill, dug-in. The Americans also places one INF back on the 80-meter hill as a reserve, dug-in.

Play: The Soviets quickly advance through the woods, and scramble up the hill to the first American positions on the 60-meter hill. The Soviets turn two turns to soften the Americans before assaulting the dug-in Americans. The first round of assaults is a dud, and the fighting at the base of the hill continues for entire hour. However, the Soviets manage to break through and begin heading for the town.

The Soviets send a company of men to take the 80-meter hill hexes on the opposite side of the American held town. Meanwhile the main force approaches the town from the west, suffering through the American OF. The company of Soviets north of the town quickly take out the one INF on the heights, and quickly capture the rest of the high hills.

The Soviets then begin their main attack on the town. They struggle to wrest two of the town hexes from the Americans, and their lower morale begins to take a toll on the Soviets. Finally on turn 19, the Soviets take both hexes from the Americans, ensuring their victory.

Result: Major Soviet Victory. The Victory Point Count stands at 17-69, with the Soviets holding a 52 point lead.
