Overview:

As the invasion of Poland progressed, the 1st and 3rd Slovak Infantry Divisions advanced to the northeast, clearing pockets of resistance. A platoon of four vz 30 Armored Cars and Cavalry were attached to the 1st Infantry Division, and advanced eastward to ensure the flank of the Fourteenth Army was protected. The Slovaks would no longer be fighting scattered border guards. The Polish 2nd Mountain Brigade, reinforced with various types of units, established a defense in an effort to halt the Axis advance.

2021-09-08(D) John Garlic vs Jeremy Busby Polish win[Imported from ROAR]
2021-08-18(D) Ken Rutkowski vs Jay Y Slovak winThis one was tough. I thought the Pole's were in really good shape but failed to plan for a multi-board edge entry of the Slovak reinforcements. This left me very weak in the rear and didn't make it to the final turn.
2021-07-19(D) Richard Jenulis vs Richard King Polish win
2021-02-26(A) M T vs R.S. Polish winI played the Slovaks. I managed to take two VC buildings by the end of turn 5 and calculated that victory was unattainable by that point so conceded the game. Polish sniper rolls did contribute to their victory, taking out one of the Slovak leaders and wounding another, but the main reason was for sure my planning which wasn't the best this time.

As a scenario it's an interesting situation concerning an attack on a village surrounded by hills - these offer good LOS coverage and thus make this a good scenario to practice the variable-level LOS rules. Also, you get to brush up your cavalry skills as the Slovaks.
2020-10-26(A) patrick palma vs Jake Smith Slovak win
2020-05-07(D) Andy Bagley vs David Murray Polish winExcellent scenario with lots of action over a wide board area. The luck swung both ways: first a lucky mortar shot got a critical hit against a stone building and killed one of my best leaders; later though the Slovak cavalry got too ambitious and a lucky shot got three squads. I could still have lost had the Slovaks paid attention to the chapel building earlier on, rather than taking the others and coming back to it - they left it just too late so I hung on to win.

2016-05-10(A) Andy Beaton vs Jeff Wasserman Polish winSlovaks got no smoke from their mortars and needed to spend too much time and too many lives to break through the MG line. Captured 2 buildings by turn 5 and then conceded.
2016-04-30(A) Will Willow vs S. Blanton Polish winBE
2016-03-31(D) Michael Rodgers vs Mark Kolenski Polish winSlovak conceded after five turns. Poles still had two VC buildings and many Slovak assets were gone.
