RE: First Axis #3 - Slovak Setup
Just got home and looked at the VC's and in checking them, I can now see the crux of what would be my initial set-up plan.
I would have concentrated the whole Slovak force around the bridgehex instead of stringing them out along the river. In fact Mr H, I told you about stringing out defenders in that FoF set-up Q. Bad Man !
The bridge has to be captured for any sort of Hungarian win. But by concentrating the Slovak defenders around it, you also gain the benefit of having your maximum fire in one place and that, in a place that the Lazlos have to advance to.
So what if they get all their force over the river ? They still have to get the bridge and that will be the Slovaks best chance of inflicting plenty of casualties as the enemy advance. With equal morale and the Slovaks getting the advantage of sitting and waiting to take their first pops, I would say it is their best chance. Of course, here and there you may have to fire brigade that group, but thats what defenders do.
Have not played this one yet though.
