Scenario EFDx109

Setup: The Germans setup on the southern edge of town, spread out over four hexes, awaiting the Soviet assault.

Play: The Soviets enter on the southern map edge, and they send their cavalry up the west side, while the anti-tank guns move to the hills to setup and take shots at the German armor. The infantry force moves up the center towards the German defenses. The guns unlimber as the main force and cavalry arrive at the edge of the Germans' range.

The cavalry decide to charge the western most Germans, but only two of the three make it, the third being completely destroyed by German opportunity fire. As they charge, the main force moves up adjacent to the Germans, but this time the opportunity fire is less effective and the Soviets begin to exchange fire with the Germans.

After several turns of ineffective fire between the Germans and the Soviets, the Soviets assault across the southern half of the town, and they quickly begin to suffer heavy losses, due to the combined armored-infantry tactics of the Germans, and the lower morale of the Soviets. They fight back and do some damage, taking out a few steps, but by the end of the game, the Soviets make no progress in the town.

Result: German Victory
