Setup: The Americans split their defense force into two separate group to defend each of the east-west roads across the map, but also place a group on the two hex island in the middle of the river on Board 20. They keep some of their units behind the main line so that the Soviets must run down the entire road to win the battle.

Play: The Soviets decide to use their overwhelming superiority in armor numbers to rush the American positions on the bank of the river. Within the first hour of the game, the Soviet armor is only two hexes from the American armor. The American armor shoots and takes out a few steps of Soviet tanks, and begin a tank duel across the river. The Soviets return fire the next turn, and after another round of volleys, the American armor is completely decimated.

Thus, the Soviets move up their foot soldiers to assault the American positions. Unfortunately, the Soviets cannot directly assault the island hexes without bringing up their engineers in the north, but American artillery and opportunity fire make sure that the engineers never arrive. The Soviets decide to assault the bridge hexes, and begin the heavy fighting.

Meanwhile, at the island hexes, the Soviets can only move adjacent and exchange fire with the American units dug-in on the island. The exchange does not go as well as the exchange of AT fire did for the Soviets. The Soviet contingency attacking the Americans is all but destroyed, and the Soviets must rely on their attacks on the bridges to win the game.

The Soviets manage to break through on both roads across the rivers and steamroll the America reserves behind the main line. Soviet units have recovered and attempt to take the island hexes, but their second attack fails as well. The Soviets have to take solace in the fact the Americans units in the river are completely surrounded by the advancing Soviet units.

Result: Major Soviet Victory. The Victory Point Count stands at 88-196, with the Soviets having a 108 point lead.
