Scenario EFDx010

A small and interesting scenario. More powerful Russian tanks against longer range German tanks with infantry support. The Germans set up on the western edge, and the Russians set up at the forward edge of the town.

The Germans advance towards the Russians but stop outside Russian range. The German INF and several tank platoons circle to the northern side of the twon to flank the Russians. The Russians move sevral BT-7's out of the town to the north to threaten the halftracks loaded with infantry.

The Germans get initiative and immediately unload the infantry to prevent the easy kills from the BT-7's. The Germans also move some tanks around the south side of the town to set up cross fire bonus against the heavily armored T-34A's and the KV-1. The Russians also are in range now, so begin to take the Pz-IIIG's under fire and eliminate several steps.

The German infantry close on disrupted BT-7's, and the Pz-IIIH's and the Pz-IVE's continue to try and reduce the T-34A's. The KV-1 eliminates another Pz-IIIG step. Before the BT-7's can recover, the German INF assault them. With no INF support, the Russian tanks are in trouble in an assault.

The T-34A's take a pounding fromt he Pz-IVE's, but the Russians have eliminated more than three German tank steps. The Germans continue to assault Russian tanks, but both sides have achieved their respective victory conditions at less than 12 turns played, so the result is a draw.
