A Good Mix of Scenarios and Forces |
---|
I decided to play this battle game because all of the scenarios were of manageable size, and because I got to use both US and South Korean forces in the course of the battle game. There are 7 scenarios in this battle game, and the basic victory conditions for each side is to win 3. As things turned out here, the US/ROK won 4, the North Koreans 3, so technically both sides won, so I called it a draw. I don't think any of the scenarios in this one are particularly one sided, and several of them were excellent and the rest at least average. They ranged from quick scenarios with less than 20 pieces to a 2 mapper with over 50 combat units. That scenario (Losing the Hills) was an exciting night fight. A couple of scenarios used the same map in the same configuration, however the different mix of forces gave the 2 scenarios different feels. The ROK did well in all but one of the scenarios they appeared, giving as good as they got or even better! The North Koreans were best at night, and still fought tenaciously in every scenario, trying to overcome their equipment shortcomings with numbers. This was a nice battle game as it gave me a chance to keep one PG game on the table for several weeks, and didn't bog down with overly long scenarios. There was a real sense of "We'll get them next time" after each scenario. I've written AARs for each of the individual actions (Scenarios 26 - 32) for those who want more details. |
