This is a small, fast-playing battle.
**
Note: This scenario should be played with all options on except command & control.
It is intended that the human player take the Polish side. Playing the German side
will not work due to the structure of the scenario.
**

Background**
The German 4th light and 2d panzer divisions were forcing the Polish Black Brigade
to retreat. On September 8th, the brigade was preparing to defend the San River. A
delaying action was fought in order to allow more time to prepare for this defense.
**

In this scenario, the human player will "surprise" and attack the advancing German
column. The object of this scenario is for the Polish forces to destroy or delay as
many German units as possible while the AI will attempt to fight its way through your
positions. If you destroy enough German vehicles, you should be able to gain "Few
Precious Minutes" that are so desperately needed by your Brigade. Destroying or delaying
units is how the battle can be won.
**

How this scenario works:
*
You have some victory hexes in the upper right of the screen. These cannot be captured by
the German side. These v-hexes will draw the AI in that direction. Any German troops who
have escaped your ambush will head in that direction and when they "discover" that it is
not possible to capture them, the AI will seek some exit hexes for itself. See the manual
for an explantion of how exit hexes work.
**

Take command of the Polish troops! Hit quickly and delay and destroy every German unit you
can. The German AO unit is marked "German Command" and is worth a lot of points to both
you and the AI. If you stop the German Command tank, you will most likely win. If you do
not, a draw is a probable outcome.
**

After the battle:*
Several delaying actions and spoiling atttacks of the Black Brigade served to delay the
on-rushing Wehrmacht but the Black Brigade, like other Polish units were not able to exploit
any successes they had. The end of the Polish campaign is drawing closer.
