Short little scenario, good for the defender, especially if the German player is too cautious. I would have expected the motorcycles to be all the way across the board, gaining the Germans points, but instead the Germans decided to fight it out in the town. This might have worked, but the German infantry seemed a bit thin on the ground- so I was content to sit in Assault hexes as the Soviet and let the lethality of Assault combat grind us both down. The Germans gave up in Turn 8, having lost 15 steps, while the Russians were at 6 or 7 with respect to their losses.

It was a tiny little battle- a bit of a let down after the monsters represented by most of the scenarios. A good scenario, though, to think about what we have learned about tactics from Kursk: the THREAT of AT fire is more potent than actual AT fire; separating infantry from armor is often a good way to get both armor and infantry killed; patience often trumps "the brilliant move that has to work out just right for it to be of any benefit at all."
