2022-08-06(D) Stephen dedier vs Dave Kocot GDA winI setup concentrating on the 2 hill buildings and limiting defenses in the other 2 including all my conscripts in the furthest building closest to the board edge.
It was a good fight with Dave massing his forces on one hill building and the middle building. My forces were pushed out of the hill with enough time for Dave to get some units down to assist his other troops and i lost the last 2 buildings in the final CC phase. Unfortunately, he bypassed the building i had set to defend with the mines and the INF gun. I made a blunder on the fortified hex forgetting that you must have a squad in the hex to keep the enemy from advancing and i had the crew with the MMG defending with a leader.
A good scenario with a lot of ways to play out.
2022-06-11(D) Richard Jenulis vs Brent Morris GDA winThe Greeks did not try to defend two of the buildings and consolidated their forces around the remaining two. The Communists ran through a wall of residual fire surviving -2 and -3 shots to close into CC and carry the day. A slow starting scenario with lots of end game action.
2021-12-04(D) Michael Rodgers vs Wai-Kwong Wong GDA winWai cleverly kept the HIP units HIP for several turns to force me to keep units at all victory sites during that time.
