(Scenario Complexity – 9)
ORDER CUBES: all random

VICTORY CONDITIONS:
The Soviets win at game end if:
(1) they control at least three objective hexes; or
(2) they control two objectives and have a friendly unit in at least 6 of the 11 buildings.
Any other result is a German win.

DEPLOYMENT:
None beyond the initial scenario setup.

SPECIAL RULES:

A. SIGHTING MARKERS: 6x Hidden Unit and 12x False Sighting.

B. NIGHT ATTACK: Soviet units are considered under Tactical Command for the duration of the scenario.
C. NIGHT CONDITIONS: Fire attacks cannot be made unless:
(1) the target hex is within three hexes of the firing unit; or
(2) the target hex is illuminated (see Starshells below)
D. STARSHELLS: Smoke hindrances are not applicable in this scenario. Instead, whenever a Smoke
marker would be placed on the map, it is always placed on its “2” side and is considered to be a
starshell instead. A starshell “illuminates” all hexes within 2 of its location. An illuminated hex is
always considered to be in LOS, even if beyond the three hex maximum listed above (and LOS is not
reciprocal in this case unless the other hex is also illuminated). Starshells are removed at the end of
every turn in the same manner as depleted Smoke.
