Scenario RtBr020

This is a historical scenario that makes you scratch your head and wonder why the Germans abandoned their own doctorine. Heavy Tiger II tanks are sent into attack against cavalry with AT Guns. The Germans must eliminate units then leave the board. The Tigers are in no condition to meet these goals. First, morale and initiative are low. The Soviets will get the first move in the beginning and most of the scenario, which will make it tough on the Germans. The Soviets just need to keep there AT alive to kill 3 steps. In my play the Soviets were able to get a long range kill with the 85mm, then as they moved closer the cavalry tied up the tanks and the AT's just kept firing eventually two more kills were achived.

In the end the Germans have little chance from a good Soviet defense, although this is good to see that these tanks were never really an offensive weapon like Hitler wanted.
