River Crossing – A Bagration Special Mission AAR
By Tom Burgess
My good friend Ed and I have been playing the campaign for the last couple of months. With our sixth game of the campaign we matched up for the River Crossing mission from the Bagration: Soviet book. Ed had bought which would give us the special pieces we needed for this mission. We played at 105 points.
The River Crossing Mission is much like the No Retreat…with a wide river down the board center. To balance the attacker’s difficulty of having to force a river crossing, the defender does not have an ambush in this mission and instead of having immediate reserves, they are delayed.
