Overview:

"FT147 (Flight of the Intruders) has a lot going for it on novelty value alone. It represents one of the border clashes the Japanese had in the mid to late 1930s between their forces in Manchuria, as well as their puppet troops, with Soviet forces, or Soviet puppet forces. This action, which uses desert boards and Steppe Terrain (as well as ground snow), depicts an attack by Japanese troops and their Manchurian (“Manchukuoan”) puppet troops against troops from the Soviet puppet government of Mongolia. The Manchurians are represented by 1st line Axis Minors on horseback; the Mongolians by Soviet counters (but treated as partisans)"- Desperation Morale review

2022-08-20(D) Jobbo Fett vs RootinPutin MPRA winAn interesting scenario that sees a large force cross open ground to cause as much mayhem as possible. The varied units and Allied Forces situation with the Japanese and Manchukoan troops is interesting and diverse. In our particular game, the Japanese were pounded by great TH from the defenders, knocking out all 4 tankettes, three of them as burning wrecks. The 20 points gained from those killed put the Mongolians up 27 to 13 by the mid-game, and the Japanese felt like it was time to throw in the towel. The fact that I had 5(!) Armored cars I could bring in whenever without any vehicular opposition to worry about is powerful.

While I might not give any side a balance by default, I think cutting down the ACs from 5 to 4 makes a little more sense. Would be more fun with a less convoluted/demanding victory condition.
