Played it PBEM. Had to forfeit due to explicit supply unbalancing the game. Recommend this scenario be played without "Explicit Supply" as an optional rule. I have otherwise given the scenario average scores, since we didn´t play it through to the finish.
A very challenging scenario for both players. Should NOT be played with Explicit supply. Definetely worth playing if you don´t have the necessary time for the full 161 turn monty.
It seems a bit tough for NATO, but it may come down to a few swings early on that make it go one way or the other. WP must push deep and fast and catch a lot of NATO troops to win.
A reasonable alternative for playing the full campaign scenario, may be that in the shorter campaign scenario the NATO is weaker as they do not get all their likely reinforcements and the WP is not going to get fully exhausted as they wiould in the longer run, but on the other hand they don't get the 2nd strategic thrust formations.
Another attempt at this one, this time spoilt by me due to my early resignation for the same reasons as ever lately - inability to carry on.
