Looks like a medium tourney scenario. Not really familiar with this one and it does not grab my interest. 4/10.

7 of 10,
Enjoyed the look of the scenario (heavy hitters, good troops, time period, etc.), but found it is too easy for the Russians to determine the German's avenue of advance as it narrows down quickly to only a couple of options. The German limitations imposed by slow vehicles, terrain and heavy hitters in the Russian OB does make this one a challenge for the Germans to say the least!

2/10. The size disguise the fact that this is a slow tedious scenario idea where too large forces mean tgere is little to no room for manoeuvre.

Seriously? This is the first such critique I have heard of this scenario. Most say it is one of the very best.

There are many choices, on both sides, a player has to make. The maneuver element is key.

The better a player is at maneuver and exploiting weaknesses as well as recognizing when and how move to defend weak points while under fire the better this scenario plays.

Bob Bendis and I had a great ASLOK finals match with this very scenario. Bob insisted on playing it, so I let him pick his side. He took the Germans and it came down to the wire in some crazy action.

/Shrug, I guess tastes really do vary wildly.

I think Vinnie was talking about Clearing The Breskens Pocket, not The Five Pound Prize.

Urban Guerillas looks like it leans a bit heavily toward the Russians, but definitely worth a play. 6/10

A small scenario which does not spark my interest. 4/10. Is it well balanced? (I've just seen it is 50/50 on ROAR. Makes it better.)

9/10 - this is a fun challenging scenario that has lots of actions and possibilities for both sides. It is also a rare Chinese Japanese urban fight with the Chinese as the aggressors.

8/10. Proto-StuGs get half credit but it's a challenging situation for both sides and the action starts immediately and lasts until the end in most playings.

I don't really know this one. I checked the archive but it does not trigger my memory. I'll give it 5/10 interest rating.

J54 Showtime.
The third of a trio, really enjoyed all of them. 7/10
