Try the scenario "Overrun" as the Germans on a difficulty higher then normal. It's a mini Dien Bien Phu! You have a force of dug in Germans who or besieged by the Soviets on 3 sides...lots of fun

Tried it - nice one. But not to hard.

Hi hafer,  yea it's not too hard but it's easy to end up with a draw if your not carful that's why I suggested playing it on a harder level.  I like the concept of the scenario, being surrounded and trying to hold out against greater numbers.

I think if I ever get good at designing scenarios I would try to make one similar but involve more armor or doing something like a "Halfaya Pass" scenario excpet in an Eastern Front setting.  The Germans would be dug in and have some AT guns, a few HMG units, mortars and a mix of pioneer/rifle squads and they would have to hold a pass against a Soviet tank company.  The Soviets would get off board artillery smoke to use and would have to win against entrenched units. 

A good scenario should offer several ways to advance so perhaps a longer route around the pass would also be available also but the German player would need to decide where place his troops. Just an idea at this point
