That was a close one actually, closer than the picture implies.
Notice his 75 ATG is on hill 538? After the Russians did well in tank vs tank, that ATG took out no fewer than 4 Russian AFVs. It is also outside the range of Russian MMGs in 3N1. The Russian player is forced to make a decision - dedicate scarce forces to go there and take it out or concentrate on the VC hexes, there is not time for both.
Also my respected opponent had his misfortunes with fate. He lost two AFV to infantry in CC. He misapplied a COI to his great cost. had any of these not occurred or been off-set by a stroke of good fortune, it may have been a very different picture to look at.
Although not won at the end of RGT10 Mph, It does look like a difficult German position. However, difficult is never impossible in Squad Leader.
