Just played this scenario against the AI and felt compelled to make a thread about it. It is one of the best solo experiences I've ever gotten from a Squad Battles title.
You are outnumbered by almost 5 to 1 - yet you are attacking! You only have a couple of Humvees and MRAPs in support, along with a few airstrikes and some artillery on call.
Taking the village is no easy task and feels quite an accomplishment after having done so. Great scenario. If you own MW and haven't played it, go for it. Here's my final result for all of you to beat!
After playing the scenario I looked up the real events behind it. It was indeed a heroic feat accomplished by the men of 2/7 Marines on August 8th, 2008. It is crazy. Here's an article on the battle itself.
