Setup: The Romanian setup three roadblocks spread out across the road on Board 8, with their force equally split into the roadblocks. Each roadblock has a 47mm gun, a HMG, and a few infantry to stop the Soviets from clearing the road. Play: The Soviets enter on the first turn on the eastern map edge, moving along the road so that the slow moving HMG's can keep up with the rest of the force. At the edge of the first 47mm's range, the light tanks hold back and the infantry and lone T-34 move up the first roadblock. As they approach, the Soviets split off half their group to launch an attack against the second roadblock. The Romanians take opportunity fire against the Soviets, but the Soviets survive well. The next turn, the Soviets are able to demoralize the gun, and it subsequently fails its morale check. After this the Soviets move up their light tanks and the T-34 moves up to aid the attack on the second roadblock. The light tanks and infantry assault the first roadblock as the other group approaches their target. The T-34 led group arrives at the second roadblock and begin direct fire at the Romanians, again destroying the gun. Soon after they begin they assault as well. Two of the assaults go well for the Romanians, and require backup to finish off, while the other two stall, but eventually the Romanians crumble. The Soviets take an hour to recover their morale before moving to deal with the final road block. The Soviet repeat the same tactics as the first roadblock and quickly destroy the final Romanian roadblock, while taking an equal number of steps lost. Result: Soviet Victory. |
