If the Soviets ever attacked Western Europe and failed to achieve their objectives, you can be certain it would have been due to the stout defense of the Canadian Army. In this scenario, two Soviet mechanized battalions stiffened with a reinforced company of T44s attacked a mechanized battalion of Canadians. It was essentially a meeting engagement, with both sides moving onto the map at start of play. The Canadians had to defend some towns and try to prevent Soviets exiting the Canadian edge.

The Canadian plan was to deploy companies of infantry in the south and central city areas, with a further company deployed in the fields to the north. They had two good AT guns backing their line. The Soviets came on with their two battalions attacking in parallel in the center and northern sectors, with 2 platoons of T44s supporting each battalion. They deployed a scratch machine gun battalion cobbled together from the two infantry battalions in the south.

The wheels came off the Soviet bus pretty rapidly. The Canadian occupied their positions with alacrity and were ready for their attackers. The Soviet attack in the center moved ahead with support from all the tanks while the northern battalion loitered for an hour or so. The MGs in the south deployed aggressively to take the southern town but suffered heavy casualties in the approach. In the center the attack became pretty disorganized but contact was achieved under cover of smoke. The tanks were steadily getting popped by the AT guns. The center battalion expended itself pretty uselessly, their poor morale and leadership not allowing any offensive moves once they were in contact. The northern battalion made a dash for the weak left flank of the Canadian position but was harassed by artillery fire, and halted by the Canadians reserve of two platoons. As the southern and central Soviet thrusts withered, spirited Canadian counterattacks rolled up both forces and drove into the flank of the now disorganized northern force. The Soviet Kommisar fled, demoralized. Multiple overruns and extended assaults by Canadians in Kangaroos ended the Soviet attack after only 2.5 hours.

Major Canadian victory.
