Scenario PiOT010

Wow, talk about a big scenario, over 300 counters, majority DIY, with a 1/3 being trucks, so if you plan on playing this scenario barrow every truck counter from any PG games you own to fill the gaps, the Czech counters do look cool through, they are not as tough to put together, just need a steady hand.

For this short scenario, only 20 turns long, the Czech forces are trying to achieve three VCs; steps, deny control of the E-W Roads to the Germans and limit the German advance to less than 20 steps exited off the East map edge. To start the game the Czechs have a small recon blocking force of infantry, armor and ATGs but they have two full length map boards to cover, so they are spread thin, good news is they only have to hold for three turns before elements of a Czech Fast Division enter along the south map edge. These forces are loaded with truck mounted infantry, cavalry, bicycle troops, mortars, on board artillery, 37 & 47mm ATGs, two companies of tanks and a 83.5mm Flak/ AT battery, more than a match for the Germans & their Pz Is & IIs but they have to make contact to cut off the German advance and it is a long march from the southern board edge over mostly open ground. The Germans won a minor victory denying the Czechs two of the three VCs, they were able to get off the East edge more than 20 steps and the Germans eliminated more Czech steps than they lost but the Pz Is took a beating, they sacrificed themselves to decimate the Czech vanguard of cavalry and bicycle infantry.
