When choosing my solitaire games, I tend to look for scnearios which are easier to play on your own which normally means one side on the defensive with limited options or scenarios which have an intresting plot. This scenario is one of those. 30 poor morale Soviet 1/2 steps have to cross 2 boards against a small but elite Spanish force. Russian cavalry come on from the other side of the board to assist the inf. The reds have also got good offboard artillery support, although not stated in the rules I played a house rule that only the cavalry leaders could spot for the artillery. The VC state that for the Spanish player to win no unit of the 46th Rifle division can exit on the east edge of the board. I can't see that not occuring so the Spanish player has in my view go for the draw that is stop more than 5 steps exiting and not lose 8 steps himself. This is where the beauty of this scenario comes in, as there are lots of stratgies and tactics to employ. I went for a forward Spanish deployment and for the Soviet inf to come on in four seperate groups in an attempt to split the Spanish forces so single steps could bypass the fighting and race for the east edge. In the game the Soviet forces did exactly that, and the cavalry lept into the asssault on the two main Spanish stacks therby tying them up. I even managed to do a sucessfull cavalry charge. By game turn 11 it was all over the Spanish had lost 8 steps and at least 7 Russian inf steps were legging towards safety. This is an excellent solitaire scenario but FtF players may find it unbalanced. I will play this one again!
