Scenario EFDx055

The Germans had to clear all the Soviets from a road in 36 turns. The Soviets deployed along the road and dug-in. Additionally, the Soviet's speedy armored car planned to dart around near the end of the scenario threatening to grab any available road hex for a quick win. Since some Germans will have to chase the armored car and every road hex will have to be assaulted the strategy was to run out the clock.

The Germans were patient. They moved just out of the Soviet's weapon range and let the HMGs, air and arty grind the Soviet foxholes. This continued this for 18 turns! By then a good third of the Soviets were gone. Then CHARGE! The available leadership, better weapons and higher morale blitzed the remaining Soviets. After only 7 turns after the charge the road was cleared. Oh, the armored car? It kept two German tank units busy chasing it around and that did keep them out of the assault. But the car met its end while hiding in a bit of woods.
