favorite scenarios
What are examples of your favorite scenarios, and why? I will first offer a few of my own.
Road to Berlin #38, "Flemings Sabred": Soviet cavalry assault Belgian SS in a couple of small towns. A notch below the next two scenarios I highlight, this one draws my interest for being different. It was the first time I did lots of cavalry charges and encourages me to find more cavalry scenarios.
Winter Soldiers #17, "A Manhay Christmas": A majority of my still-limited experience with PG has been urban assaults. Both times I've played this scenario it was a rural assault, a pitched battle along the edge of a hill. Toss in a lot of Yankee armor and an interesting mix of German AT guns, a Panther, and a StuG and you've got a strong scenario.
Road to Berlin #48, "Kustrin Corridor": Classic example of quality versus quantity. The Soviets have a lot more foot soldiers and tanks, but they must defeat a German combined force that includes fewer but superior armor.
To me A Manhay Christmas and Kustrin Corridor have come closest to showing off PG for all it can be. My perception is both scenarios are at least a little bit unbalanced (Germans could use a couple more armor units in AMC, and Soviets could use a few more in KC). That is the only reason I did not rate those scenarios a 5.
So again, what are your favorite scenarios, and why?
