Well...that went piss poor. Playing Soviet solo and managed a meagre 9 points out of a required 12 by turn 4.

Oddly, turn 4 starts the Soviets ein of the get more than 25 points. I fail to see how that's remotely possible...even given I played awfully.

I'm not sure I know what I did wrong. Maybe burned too many cards from my 5 card hand on tactics so movement of my armies was limited. Also perhaps a bit too cautious.

Of course I defo played it wrong too. I probably put too many garrisons down and probably deployed reserves when I shouldn't have.

Oh well...it was a blast - though i don't think it was as much fun as Ardennes - so I'm going in for another go.

Sold this.

I didn't think it was a good as EA:Ardennes. The AI for the Germans in the Soviet Solo game was difficult and I found it awkward and overly time consuming...to the point where I was dragging my feet playing when it came to performing the German actions

I just found it pretty tedious in the end. Started off great mind.

I could've gave the German Solo a go...but I was burned out on it.
