Both sides advanced along the road and both debarked their infantry from transport at the end of turn one. Romanians initially got upper hand by eliminating four Soviet tank steps with accurate AT fire. Soviet infantry attempted to go around Romanian southern flank. The Soviet AT fire then improved and eliminated four Romanian tank steps. Both sides then settled into a battle of attrition. The Soviets then eliminated all the Romanian armor and were able to hold on for the victory. This scenario would be very difficult for the Romanian to win since they have to eliminate all Soviets from board 1 as well as the east-west road.
