Assault on the Hilltop | ||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Setup: The Soviets spread their forces all along the road hexes on the hilltop on Board 14, and setup another line alone the 60-meter hexes in the north, with only a couple of units in the south to stop any American incursions on the southern side of the hills. Play: The Americans move in two forces towards the Soviets' line, aiming to defeat the Soviets' line in the northern heights, before a complete attack across the length of the road. Because of the slow mobility of the Americans, they do not arrive at the base of the hill for ten turns. Soon after, the Americans start up the hills. The smaller group moves along the road to keep the Soviets in position on the road. The Americans slam into the light defenses in the north, and immediately assault, due to the fact they wasted two and a half hours of advancing. The Soviets put up a stiff resistance for the 60-meter hexes in the north. The Americans finally kick out the Soviets from the hill and launch their main attack against the Soviets on the road. The Americans rapidly split the Soviet force in two and begin to whittle away the Soviet force, but only manage to push the Soviets off of the eastern half of the hill. On the western half of the hill the Americans involve themselves in a bitter assault, which lasts until the game ends almost two hours later. Result: American Minor Victory. The Victory Point Count stands at 55-63, with the Americans having a eight point lead. |
