Abatis CMCW scenario - US mission requirement question

[cplkrotz]

yeah, it is a bit confusing, as it seems that you've to prevent enemy to take the abatis zone, and have enough time to withdraw to the exit area

Do the engineers have to do anything at all? What is their purpose?

The abaits may be the Soviet objective, but if you cannot keep it, what's the point of risking casualties? Why not begin withdrawing right away?
