Scenario EFDx061

Entrenched Soviets on a hill. No OBA to soften things up. Only sixteen turns. Well, at least it's dark!

No time to be subtle. The Romanians make quick sprint in the dark and smash into the nearest two Soviets. The plans is to keep it focused only assaulting two adjacent hexes. Drag casualties out and shove the fresh troops forward. The first dug-in Soviets break. Now up the hill to an entrenched stack. Manage to get through the initial round. Romanian casualties are streaming into the darkness and things are stacked up in front. Nothing budges.

As the sun rises it is clear the Romanians won't take the hill but maybe they can stay in the one hill hex and force a draw. Soviets start adding fresh troops and grind away the remaining Romanians. It is just a matter of time.

Since this was just a shoving match I would have rated this scenario a one but since it wasn't until the last turn that the Soviets finally cleared the hill making it a nail-biter for the Soviet's I increase my rating to 2.
