[Mount Bental, Golan Heights]:[H2H][TRNY][CSL]: In response to the Israeli invasion of Lebanon, Syria launched an attack just west of Kuneitra along the Golan Heights. Despite heavy losses, the Syrians were able to isolate part of the Israeli defenders in the Mount Bental sector. In response to the Syrian attack, the Israelis are rushing additional forces to the area to quickly counterattack and reach their encircled soldiers. With both sides up against the clock, the Syrians are not idle and are also rushing additional forces to the area to stall the Israeli advance long enough for them to capture a large contingent of Israeli soldiers. As dawn approaches, the roar of diesel engines fill the air and the rumble in the earth indicates the tanks of the Israeli counterattack are on the move. To the west, the flash of artillery opening fire lights the horizon. No doubt, the Israelis are determined to crack open a path to Mount Bental. [ALL][NONE][1.00]

The Syrians are no match for an experienced Israeli commander.
Resolve then, that on this very ground, with small flags waving and tinny blasts on tiny trumpets, we shall meet the enemy, and not only may he be ours, he may be us. --Walt Kelly
Really good mix of forces with OOBs on both sides. Both players really need to watch out for the tank killing infantry in this one!
Don't see a Syrian major win here against equal players.
Only one game for me on this but it appears it may be heavily favoring Israel. Looking forward to playing opposite side.
Great map and great scenario! Deadly units for both sides but the Syria Air Defenses were not kind to my helo's even when being super cautious with them.
