This was a solo effort to get going with AK. It is a short introductory game, 8 turns infantry only, where the Italians just need to enter a specific hex to win, the Aussies need to stop them. In my play the Italians rushed forward to take on the Aussie OP fire, fortunately the fire was weak and the Italians were able to approach the dug in Aussie positions. They assaulted the dug in positions and were able to drive back the Aussie mortar and INF platoon before a second INF and HMG came to the rescue. The Italians scored a step losses on the Aussie reinforcements and get locked in assault. A second group of Italians move toward the victory hex and are hit with OP fire, disrupting them. The following turn they recover as the Aussie fire weakens. By the seventh turn the Italians are able to assault and survive the attack to achieve the victory.

A good little scenario, balanced but the Italians will need a little luck to get to the victory hex.
