Overview:
Driven from the cities, the Chinese Communist party had succeeded in establishing Soviet Territories in the countryside. Chiang Kai-shek was determined to eliminate them. After his first four failures, the "Fifth Battle of Encirclement" would be a more cautious constriction using tens of thousands of blockhouses, one ring built within cover of the previous. The Comintern Agent from Moscow, Otto Braun, urged construction of their own blockhouses to counter the Nationalist threat. The Red Army built poor earth and timber blockhouses. These would be tested by a KMT attack at Guangchang. A reinforced company was to hold a line of fortifications, and the main force would emerge from hiding and attack the KMT in the flank. The KMT led with air power and artillery.Attacker: KMT (Elements of KMT)
Defender: Red Army (Elements of the 3rd Chinese Red Army)

| 2021-12-15 | (A) Jobbo Fett | vs | Hypnobeard | KMT win | Although my opponent failed their Personal Morale Check, I think this scenario has enough to offer to be engaging and fun on multiple playthroughs. The Nationalists MUST use Human Wave to close the distance to the enemy, try not to break their artillery pieces, and to carry the day while losing large numbers of conscripts . In our particular game, poor initial placement was blamed for the Communist losses, as by turn 2 the Nationalists had (or were going to have) 10 VP. Another 6 were guaranteed, and the communists did not believe they could regain ground, even with their substantial reinforcements. | ||

| 2010-11-10 | (D) Rami Saarinen | vs | Legion | Red Army win | I was outrageously lucky with the dice. |
