Firefight Scenario 4

GENERAL SITUATION Back in the Versbach area, the Soviet 20th Gds. Mot. Rif. Div. continues to put the pressure on along Hwy. 1. TASK ORGANIZATION Soviet Forces: Motorized Rifle Company (+)—ten BMP, four T62, two BRDM (with Sagger), twenty-seven TM+, two MG+; Direct Support— two 122mm. U. S. Forces: Mechanized Infantry Platoon (+)—four M113, four TM+, one TM, two MG+, four M150; Organic Support: three 81mm mtr, one 4. 2’’mtr. (three Dragons to be assigned). MISSION U. S. Player: Defend high ground NW of Versbach. Soviet Player: Attack through Versbach, north along Hwy. 1. DEPLOYMENT U. S. Forces deploy first, anywhere north of Rte. 298. Soviet Forces deploy anywhere south of 298. VICTORY CONDITIONS The U. S. Player wins if he exits more units off the north edge of the map than the Soviet Player does by the end of the game. The game lasts twenty Game-Turns. (Players’ Note: While at first glance it might seem that the U. S. Player has an enormous advantage because he starts so much closer to the north edge, he cannot simply retreat—he must stand and fight.)
