Default Re: Crossing the Amur

2 more turns of heavy fighting and the game ends! Here's the final result:







The result was a draw (more like a Soviet pyrrhic victory). The Chinese managed to hold a good portion of the battlefield, albeit with heavy casualties in both men and materiel. The Soviet bridgehead was weak and couldnt be properly reinforced. Ultimately the stalemate in Amur river remained, with the Soviets gaining only small portions of land.

So the result wasnt exactly good. My biggest mistakes were improper use of smoke (too many times my units crossed the river in full view of Chinese armor), failure to properly evaluate the enemy force composition, I didnt expect them to have that many tanks,very late commitment of the reserve and some strategic error like not purchasing any engineer tank, which would helped vastly with the minefields I encountered along the road. Anyway, it was a great game, one that I thoroughly enjoyed and onwards to the next mission, delaying the chinese horde. See ya guys!
