Overview:

Officially neutral since 1935, and still referred to in 1941 as “Persia”, Iran maintained friendly relations and trade with Germany. Its ruler, Rezah Shah Pahlavi, also requested from the Reich technicians for various industries. The British, very suspicious after a revolt in nearby Iraq, plotted some kind of direct action. Following “Barbarossa”, Iran offered a way to supply USSR but the Persian oil fields seemed in danger. A joint action was quickly planned with the Soviets from the north. The 8th Indian Division, based in Iraq, was the main unit involved. The invaders prepared themselves, with the oilfields of Abadan as their main objective in the south.
Attacker: Indian (B Company, 1st Kumaon Rifles, 19th Hyderabad Regiment)

2025-06-04(D) James Rimmer vs Kyle Weltner Iranian win2 hrsIranian set up very forward. Managed to slow Indians won and won. The Indian needs to be very aggressive. I am not sure the CVP VC is needed. Might be more balanced without it.
2020-08-11(A) Alberto González Ramírez vs Solo Indian win
2019-12-27(A) Marco Pasquini vs Biserni Alberto Iranian winIndian... go go go!!!!!
2013-11-16(A) Richard Jenulis vs Joe Vennarucci Iranian win
2012-10-25(A) Lee Hyde vs Nick Carter Iranian winNot sure on this one. No chance for Indians without very fast movement and still tight with distance to move and then eject Iranians from stone buildings. Didn't even come close but would try again as they must be a way to crack this one.
