2022-03-17(A) David Ramsey vs Martin Barker Italian winThe Russian's pushed hard with an illegal human wave on T1 but never really took control of the scenario despite making great progress and having 8 squads on the hills at times. The combination of Wire, trenches, minefields and OBA in the end was all too much. As featured on IR 64.
2022-01-15(D) Asad Rustum vs Jacob Elmqvist Italian winSet up as the Italians rather far back with only a few units overlooking the river. Once the Russians had crossed the rivers the Italians has a magnificent lt.mtr bashing hitting the Russians hard. OBA was tough. After finally gaining radio contact the access chit was red and the next turn the second red chit was drawn. The leader got mad and threw the radio at the Russians.
Quite a few weather changes came about with snow increasing twice after which it disappeared. The Italians has some good luck not only with rate on the mortars but also with IFT rolls and although rolling the Russian SAN quite a few times, the Russians did not get payback through effective snipers.
In the final turns the Russian 9-2 rolled for HoB and became berserk.
All in all a very nice scenario.
2021-05-11(A) Savo Barbero vs Opponent Aanonymous Russian win[Imported from ROAR]
2021-05-10(D) manzoli andrea vs Galletto Russian win
2021-02-08(D) Paolo Cariolato vs Alessandro Levarato Russian winI choose this scenario as a teaching tool for my opponent, breaking the radio was pivotal in getting a very close game that tha russian was going to lose having just 10VPs on level 1 of which 3 were the underdog in a tough melee with 1 and 1/2 italian squad and a concealed italian leader.
My opponent was going to concede but I encouraged him to play on, "you can always roll snakes". That's exactly what happened. Getting a 6+1 leader improved to 11 his VPs i wasn't able to break or eliminate any units and lost the game. It was fun.
