Scenario PaGr016

We played this cruddy one to an almost draw, but the Russians pulled off a win at almost the last minute. Both sides drew poor leaders and had lots of bad die rolls. I figured that this would be an easy one for the Germans to win - wrong again! Soviet AT cross fires were unusually deadly and my opponent's desire to destroy every AT gun as a priority did a whole lot to expose the weakness of the ill-equipped and deployed Nazi defenders. Still getting used to fighting defensively in PG, and this fight had some teachable and coachable moments for me.

I give this mess, a generous rating 2, because it was fun to play with a dangerous and cunning opponent after we added the tanks leaders as others have suggested. Next time, I get to do the attacking in what I hope will be a better play-tested game. This one is probably best played as a solitaire game.
