Romanja Planina plateau, Bosnia-Herzegovina, 18th October 1914:
In mid September, the Serbians commenced a bold offensive into Bosnia-Herzegovina with the intent of disrupting the right flank of the Austro-Hungarian offensive into Serbia. Due to bad weather, indecisiveness, and excessive caution, the Serbian advance into Bosnia quickly bogged down.
On October 18th, the Bosnian invasion culminated into the Battle of Romanja Planina, with the Austro-Hungarians counter attacking with an ad-hoc force that was hastily thrown together some weeks before.

The Austrian machine guns and artillery backed up by regular infantry can push the smaller Serb units aside which are made up of few regulars and the rest small units of partisans and irregulars.
It was however an interesting challenge against an excellent opponent.
As the allied player I found myself basically holding the line and kinda bored, and I would've said play balance is pro allied as my opponent conceded after day 3 but after reading the comments above it seems that my opponent probably could've made some more interesting moves, also I think it was his 1st time playing the Austrians which aren't very forgiving.
