Northern Norway May 1963

Point Defence is this scenario. A Soviet Airborne Brigade is attempting to capture a Norweigian village to allow the main advance to follow

A Norweigan battalion attempts to hold a small village

A .50 cal team holds a ruined farm house
Soviet Spentznaz begin to attack the village

They capture a cottage and barn

MMG team begin to take hits and are pinned

Soviets fire well

Soviet Para's fire an anti-aircraft missile at the MMG team

More hits

More fire is poured on this position

Eventually the MMG team is eliminated so an infantry company takes their place

Another company and a jeep hold a farm

Soviets occupy the second objective

Norway's young men are taking hits

A final missile hits the barn. All are lost in the inferno. The Soviets capture the farm to use as a base to further their invasion.

A good skirmish game. The Norweigeans were able to take out a Soviet company, but with their automatic weapons, the Russians were able to dominate the firefight.
