Scenario TaBa030

This is a fairly short but intense push of a combined arms Soviet force through a German Infantry force in heavy woods. It makes use of board 201/13 with almost every hex counting as a different terrain type, which is unfortunate, but at least its not another board 6 scenario which has been over-used by this module.

Germans spread thin on the ground with their INF and strongpoints, fortifying the chokepoints around the road with their AT guns and HMG. Their intent is to beat back the infantry attack and if lucky, react to the Soviet armor by mobbing up their infantry into woods assaults, denying a Soviet walkthrough.

Soviets set the mass of their INF towards the south, with the KVs headed down the road. Because of the snow they cant to much else. The slow moving T60s tag along, while the SMGs and T-34s head north to try and break through to the west.

German INF does react quickly in the north and bogs down the T-34s, while the Infantry is beaten back in the south, mostly according to plan. However that OBA/BM artillery fire each turn takes it's toll, including on the assaulting German INF stacks hitting those T-34s.

In the South, even after the INF is beaten back, those KVs are still a danger. They pound the German positions over and over again until they get enough kills for the VC. Once they lose that 50, the Germans dont have much they can do about a KV2.
