This was a solo play of a scenario that includes semi hidden units and hidden minefields. I played, pretending to not know this information to the best of my ability, but you might want to just ignore this AAR because of it.

The German's objective is to survive against a superior force that includes a significant amount of tanks and lots of OBA. The Russians have decent morale for once as well. To attempt to live, the Germans bunched up towards the center of the map, trying to cover all advances of attack with HMG and AT guns. The minefields were deployed along the road and 2 adjacent hexes directly in front of the German Lines.

The Russians split off into 3 groups. The tanks, mortars, and half of the HMG moved up the center to support the wings. The south wing of infantry contained 2/3 of the force, while a smaller one attacked from the north. While advancing (slowed by snow) the Germans could not move, so the first half of the game ended quickly with the 2 attacking wings getting into position. The tanks split into two groups to support the wings while the HMGs remained in the center.

The Russians attacked according to their plans, rolling the German forces up by the flanks, with a remaining force defending in the center. The mines took care of the Russian HMG, but this was not enough to stop the Russians. The Russians achieved victory on the last turn, reaching the kill count. Very close scenario that could have gone either way. Despite being a one mapper, I really enjoy this one because it is very close between the two forces.
