Scenario Saip008

The Axis set up on the hill in the southeast corner with two half platoons in the nearby village. The Allies drove forward in a frontal assault. In addition one company including Engineers used the road to curl around the Axis right flank. This attack went well versus the low morale Axis units. But just when the Allies were closing for the kill they lost a step in the assault on the Axis artillery observer and support units. Then with the Allies still assaulting the Axis called their own artillery down on their own position. This caused another Allied step loss.

The Allies were not intimidated. They brought up a fresh platoon and continued the attack. By scenario end all Axis steps were eliminated except two which were demoralized. This produced a draw. This was really fun. Not too many times you see friendly artillery called down on a friendly position but it saved the loss. This is a solid 3.
