Scenario 0.

I had the Russians and decided to concentrate all my tanks to the south so to roll over the isolated Stug platoon and then pass through and fight the Germans in the village.

What happened was that I became stuck without any hope what so ever and even after firing a frustrating ton of led those damn things wouldn't yield. No way.

In the mean while my infantry in the village was massacred by the assaulting Germans. It was just a matter of time, and mine was somewhat shorter.

At the end of the game, I killed one Stug in exchange for a T-34... and the Germans had wiped my infantry from the village. Wow. What a disaster.

Did I have fun? I don't know. I need to play some more.

PS
I was put off by the low quality of some components, namely the cards and the player aids. I suppose my expectations were higher because of other games such as Combat Commander... damn it.

What do you want in terms of cards? Gold plated?

That would be nice. laugh

Rest of GMT quality (PoG, CC...) would be enough, less than that it is not. And by that I mean cards that will bend and warp if you don't sleeve them.
