The Germans were placed in the woods and towns in the Western half of the board. The Russians began in the Northeast and quickly attacked the towns in the center. However, the German armor had already reached the bridge and fended off the T-34s for two turns until reinforcements arrived. The Hetzer went on to claim two kills on T-34s and the German infantry held against suicidal Russian cavalry charges. In a make or break moment, the German engineers destroyed the bridge, just before the Soviet cavalry broke through to the town and river bank. Overall, the Germans would have won, even if they were thrown out of the town at first. The Russians should have one or two more tanks , or some more cavalry to make this scenario fair.
