Upon seeing this I had to try it. I proxied two boards as I don't have Elsenborn Ridge. It started off very poorly for the NG. Initial contact ended in total loss. The black smoke was a hammer with its 42 on the bombardment table and the NG in the open. It looked like a walk away victory until NG units wrapped around the Martians, making it impossible to hit every hex. The Martians got one unit off the map and the NG got two kills, at a little over 70% losses. A great scenario.
