The Soviets and the Romanians are trying to claim a bit of east-west road. Soviets want the east half and the Romanians want the west half. Therefore the hex they both want (the one straddling the maps) is the one they both want. They both know that is where they will ultimately meet.

The Romanians move quickly forward fortifying a hill to the south and digging in a front on their side of the map.

The Soviets plod slowing allowing their OBA to do its work while sending forward its tanks to break up the hill hardpoint. As the Soviets move through the fields and woods the Romanians dig in.

The Soviet tanks begin shooting at the exposed Romanian AT guns on the hill while they dig in. The Romanians avoid the bait and continue to dig in. Meanwhile the Soviet OBA is having little effect.

Romanian AT guns are in place. Soviet tanks retreat. But too late. Romanian OBA score 3 hits. Soviet infantry begin to advance. Now it's down to the knife.

Hours of assaults back and forth with OBA screaming down. Vicious and hapless assaults, friendly fire and leaders dying. A battle of attrition ends. The Soviet leaders, but one, are gone. The final leader, who maintained a mortar company in the north town throughout the battle calls retreat.

The Romanians hold the road and supplies can now safety move east.
