Scenario AFDx039

Germans set up all units in a line near the crossroads hex. Finns entered and attacked the ends of each line and quickly eliminated those German units. They then moved in on the entrenchment hexes and faced stiffer opposition. One of the entrenchment hexes was assaulted, but proved very costly. The Finns exited the assault and maneuvered into position to attack one of the entrenchments. The game then stalemated as both sides traded 7 rolls and did no damage to each other. With three turns to go the Finns broke the stalemate by rolling boxcars then snakeyes in attacks on the crossroads entrenchment, killing all the occupants. The remaining reduced Finnish engineer unit occupied the entrenchment before the adjacent Germans could get to it. The Germans then assaulted the hex before it could be reinforced but the engineers held on until the reinforcements came. The Finns won a convincing 25-9 victory, but it could have gone the other way just as well if the Germans had had a couple good dice rolls at the right times. Of course that can probably be said about most very small scenarios. All in all a fun scenario worth playing again.
