I think the Egyptian almost needs to helo some troops back along the road to cause blocking actions, so the IDF can't reach the exits.

I should have studied the map more carefully at the beginning, noticed the exit hexes too late in the game. Probably a hint in the scenario description would have beeen helpful. My bad.

Good scenario, especially when playing it the first time and being uncertain what to expect.

Israelis have to take their infantry with them to the exit hexes to use against the saggers-but getting loaded vehicles across the board against the Egyptian helicopters is the real problem.

Good little scenario, IDF really has to move it, and not get trapped into a prolonged fight. The Egyptian has a few options on how to do this, makes you think!

The Israelis can't get into a prolonged fight for to long. But instead have to move it fast for the exits while trying to destroy as many Egyptian Saggars and helo's as possible. It was tough for my Israelis just getting the draw.
