1) Seoul ~~ held all VHs (actually only 3 of 6 - speaking of, it were 4 of 6 in the first playthrough @80 )

Core make-up
* predefined by scenario
HQ inf with Jeep (in turn 5)

Proto
M51 towed AD



In the northwest, i let auxes entrench in the mountains. The aty (lone survivor) later retreated to Seoul.

In the center, i send 1 inf to block passage to the aty, and let the other 2 entrench on Rough terrain. The aty (lone survivor) later retreated to Seoul.
Sidenote: also guided the aux Police (far east) back to Seoul.

In the south, i pulled aux inf to the northeast of Seoul.

Both aux engineers conducted Scorched Earth at
Clear/Road (22,22)
City (7,20)
City (21,24)
City (9,24)
to delay enemy advance.

HQ lost some paint - but got its 5th XP-bar. @80 the HQ just took part in the battle "for fun" and to gain XP, this time it was mandatory.

With only the core HQ as reinforcements this is a battle, thanks to the enemy tank. Lost the main Seoul VH in turn 9, took until turn 12 to get it back.

2) Kum River ~~ held all VHs (actually only 3 of 5, speaking of, it were 4 of 5 in the first playthrough @80 )

Sold
Proto (great Air Attack, lots of Ammo, but only Range=3 and no organic movement)

Bought
M26 tank (the M47 was tempting (+1 Initiative = more effective defense), but @0 i don't want a tank to run out of Fuel in the wrong moment)
M37 light SPaty (only Range=5, but Speed=6 remedies it a bit. Initative=5 is )
M19 SPAD (temporary, i guess)
Recon for the HQ

Prestige taken into scenario

I restarted once for better deployment - to pacify the enemy "mountain" aty west of the central VH.

From west to east: aty, AD, HQ, tank

All ground units, except tank and rcn (and the bunker), formed a defense perimeter around the VH (22,8).
The tank dashed over the river in turn 1, overran 2 inf and damaged a third.

You start with 2 VH, but need 3 for a BV.
I send the rcn east (it is too weak to help in the battle) hoping to later grab the VH (29,2) with its help. However, the tank (actually the complete core) ended up between the central and northcentral VHs, so that i took (24,2) instead.

The enemy MiG was hungry to take out the aux MGs around the VH (22,8), so that it could be shot down after running out of Ammo.

3) Pusan ~~ BV-6

Bought
M41 SPaty
M40 heavy SPaty

Prestige taken into scenario
73

Leaders
M26 , Extended Front



Deployed fast aty to the front, followed by tank and heavy aty, then HQ and AD.

Moved lots of auxes around, for better Terrain defense, blocking paths and overlapping more aty.
Since offense is the best defense, this time i gathered the 3 AFVs (2x tank and a SPAT) at the western central bridge, supported by the "photo recon" aircraft, crossed the river and got into the back of enemy aty around the VH (11,25).
Needed to wait in turn 2, since an enemy tank was blocking the bridge, but could get rolling in turn 3.
Also, from the far south with the help of a Bridge eng, i send the M4 "Easy Eight" as additional tank (only afterwards i was so smart to spot its path with the "rcn" plane...it didn't end up in enemy spotting range, but had trouble getting through an enemy inf blocking the path ).
Dunno why, but the SPAT ended up in enemy spotting range in turn 3->4 (i guess i overlooked something, maybe the enemy HQ), fortunately it survived. With help of the incoming core aty, an aux aty from Yongsan (14,25) area (an enemy 76mm gun traveled too far east ), the 4 AFVs, a 2nd aux aty from the south and the bomber i started cleaning the backyard in turn 4. Some paint was lost, but only 2 enemy leadered aty survived.

BV in turn 5. The situation:
- the northern front was collapsing, with enemy armour and motorized inf breaking through (either towards VH (10,14) and/or (21,23) i guess) and at least 2 enemy inf nearing the VH (40,14) - although the enemy also lost quite a bit of units (including some atys)
- the defenders of VH (10,14) were under siege, but holding out quite well
- in the west, the VH (11,25) was lost, but the enemy never penetrated far past that point
- in the far southwest, all enemies were killed

So, while the BV-6 (or -7 in the 80% playthrough) looks comfortable, behind the scenes it is a bit more intriguing

4) Inch'on Landing ~~ BV-3

Bought
Curtiss rcn aircraft with Recon

Prestige taken into scenario
21

Proto
M42 SPAD



The rcn plane has [K] Carrier ability and as such can launch from aux ships.
The tank lost some paint before landing.

The only "trick" to get everything rolling is preparing one (preferably more ) Overrun(s) for the tank immideately when it lands.

Without the need to grab Flags (they don't give prestige @0), this scenario could be finished quickly.

Northern auxes conquered the VH (36,15) on their own.

Southern auxes, after the core cleared the area, formed a defense perimeter around the VH (29,22).

Most of the core went through the southern forest area and attacked Pyongyang from the south. The rookie tank, M37 and rcn car went over the plains to reduce traffic jam.
Before getting to the main goal, several units were low/out of Fuel.
Aux airforce was used as additional spotters.

I planted the AD adjacent to enemies, hoping to trade strength (or more correctly: prestige) for XP - it worked

Played this scenario yesterday with different HQ. Originally i had picked 2x 105mm M2A1 for their higher range, and no inf unit. I was a bit distracted while playing yesterday, so that only at the Chosin/next HQ i realized that i lost a gun Also these guns have no organic movement, making the later part of the scenario a bit stressy (VH in the northwest).
Technically i could have continued with the loss, but since i was too tired yesterday to post (and thus finalize the outcome) i today decided to replay the scen. Also went with different HQ decisions, as listed above.
But back to business

This scen evolves around Support Fire, so i bought 2 guns. Could have bought 3, but it felt safer to have an inf in the west as VH defender and roadblock.

Northwest
- 2x towed gun, the AD, non-leadered tank and the core inf defended VH (5,8) (tank and AD later joined the northcentral units)
- the aux inf (15,9) was planted at (10,7) to block the path coming down from VH (7,1), also (i was a bit worried) i pulled the aux M46 tank to the northwestern area

Northcentral
- i guess aux units can do this alone, but why let so much XP got to waste
- core M37 was planted at (12,6) projecting its Support Fire to the west and central battles
- a core M40 was planted at (13,7), projecting its firepower to the west and central battles
- in turns 5 and 6 the aforementioned AD and tank arrived (in that order)

Northeast
- moved auxes around for better positions, also pulled the southern understrength inf north
- HQ, rcn, leadered tank, second M40 and the M41 rushed to the east to bolster the defenses

Airforce was was busy everywhere in many roles.

The VH (34,12) was lost in turn 3, but retaken in turn 5. Also in turn 5 it seemed that the western area was cleared, so that i planted the aux inf on the VH (5,8) and let the core units split in 2, with the tank and AD heading east and the others heading north.

Entered the area of "scenarios i remember very well"

Northwest i deployed the rcn car, M41 and Ex.Front tank.

Northeast consisted of
- aux: inf, AD and aty
- core: 1x 105mm, in a sense 2x M40, and i send the Skilled Recon tank here first

South was defended by the second 105mm gun and the aux HQ (and 1x M40 for the first 2 turns).

I basically gave up the center, to quickly nail the enemy offensives in the west (mostly) and east (completely), and then focus all forces on the center. After that, the western group re-assembled, killed the remnants and (re)took both northwestern VHs.

Since aty gains XP slowly and the 2 towed guns had proven to be kind of useful, i decided to keep them. You can (almost) never have too much artillery

I restarted once, to switch positions of the rcn and an M37 around.

East
Skilled Rcn tank, Skilled Rcn M37, M41 and HQ

Center
M26 Ex.Front, AD, 1x M40 and 2x 105mm - i build a defense position around the DHs at the Oro-Hamhung bridge

West
2nd M37 SPaty, M47 tank (doing most of the work in the first half of the scen), rcn car and 1x M40 - this time i grabbed all western auxes and let them help the western tank take over the western and central areas (instead of sending them to the starting VHs for Entrenchment)

This looked scary at first.
Had no clue how to deal with the enemy airforce. I mean, the AD trapped->killed an enemy (light bomber ? ) aircraft which was trying to hug a core towed gun. But the F4U was killed by the MiGs without dealing damage and the other 2 fighters are also no match for the MiGs.
In order to take out the enemy western flank, the core rcn ended up sitting on a river. Enemy inf spotted it, enemy T-34 wanted to cuddle with it Aty fire was the saviour.
In turn 2, continuing to take down the western (and moving towards the northern) flank, the M47 ended up out of Ammo

It somehow worked out in the end, thanks to terrain and more or less intended baits the MiGs flew into or through AD+Flak traps

I was thinking for a moment whether i should buy another tank or aty, but i decided to continue with existing numbers.

The only units i deployed in the west were the rcn aircraft, HQ and M26 Skilled Recon, which lead the western aux forces into combat.

The M47 briefly supported the aux units in the center, then made a Sichelschnitt to the east.
The second M26 then took over the lead of the central auxes.

Rest of the core (mostly aty anyway) took positions in the woods, waiting while eastern auxes baited enemy units out of their entrenched positions, and for the tank to arrive.

In turn 4 i dismissed the eastern battlegroup, with some units (2x towed guns, 2x heavy SPaty, rcn car, aux HQ, and aux heavy SPaty - confusingly, non of the aux infs survived ) heading northeast to release the stressed VH. The other units (3x lighter SPatys, SPAD, tank) joined the better part of the central group (a few losses, 1-2 i IIRC, and i left behind non-motorized inf).

Could have finished in turn 10 (*) but played the additional turn for more XP.
(*) that is, if i still had a unit which could move->reach the last VH

I didn't remember how much airforce this scenario had, but since the AD is earmarked for sale anyway, i could as well make sure that it was on yoghurt.
Rest of HQ decisions went into increasing recon (it is finally around summer again) and overrun abilities.

M37 Skilled Recon was deployed in the southwest and rushed to the help of auxes around VH (7,20) which lack sufficient aty support.

Rest of the core was deployed in the main deploy area in the northeast.
Contrary to my run @80 (where i forced my way into the map center, with lost strength and a lost core unit) i let the core wait during the first turn, with auxes baiting the enemy. 17 artilleries gave the commies a hot welcoming party, tanks did their overruning job.
The core then split in 2, with tanks, rcn, 2 aux inf and (most) self-propelled units going over the northern bridge, while towed guns (plus aux guns and inf) and an M40 took the river road southwest.

Auxes in the center and southwest were only defending.



Dunno why exactly (i used less aux in the southwest @80), but this felt somehow harder than the run @80. Situation in turn 4:
* the only fronts which were running at good speed was in the north (the column was approaching the northern airfield in sorted manner), and air force achieved air superiority in turn 3 (enemy bomber surviving) and air supremacy in turn 4 with little damage suffered

* in the center a lot of inf was lost - a T-34 was barely killed while it tried crossing the river, 1 eng actually made a breakthrough over the river (but was then killed by aty and inf)

* in the southwest, despite having air and additional aty support (this time i also pulled the 4th aux tank up there), by turn 4 only 3 tanks (2 of them damaged) 2 inf (both damaged) aux HQ, aux heavy SPaty and core light SPaty were still standing - the VH was lost.
At the start of turn 5 i had to abandon the position, with only 1 tank, HQ and both SPatys surviving. Saviour of the day was Rain: i decided trying to halt the AI a second time behind/south of the river crossing (9,22) - since the AI didn't see this, it send its units straight into the lurking aux tank.



I should have had supplied the southwestern units with a core tank from the start, but as said: in the first run @80 the auxes were doing great on their own and in the end, it also worked this way.

Speaking of: more than 33% of all (current) campaign losses are addressed to this scenario

I remembered that there is no auxiliary airforce in this scenario, so i bought an additional AD to protect core units.
Restarted once to deploy units in better starting positions

I moved all auxes that looked at least semi-useful to the front.
Core was split into 2 more or less equal groups, each covered by an AD, and rushed to the 2 enemy-held VHs.

This scenario plays very similar at 0% and 80%.

I remembered this scenario not having enemy airforce, so i sold the ADs.

Tank M26 Ex.Front, accompanied by both towed guns, the rcn car and HQ, set out to take the southern VH and then release the cornered auxes in the east.

M47 (quite literally) rolled over the central map to the northeast - with a bit of help from 2 SPatys and 2 bombers.

M26 Skilled Recon with the remaining SPatys liberated the northwestern area.
I was a bit greedy in the last turn to squeeze out an additional kill, but since the tank was1 hex away and had no more move points left, it had to make a regular attack and lost 1 Overstrength with this action

In all actuality, the atys didn't have much to do in this scenario. Maybe silencing an aty or sniping an inf in the mountains, but overall, the 15-strength tanks are overrunning

With this much overstrength, the scenario also plays very similar at 0% and 80%.

I have nothing to add to my original critique: the campaign is
- short
- fun to play
- easy, and as such very beginner friendly
