This scenario dares the Republicans to be brave and the Nationalists to be sneaky. A properly executed assault on the Mayor's building can end the game surprisingly fast, provided the defender doesn't attempt to go door-to-door to wake up the troops... and receive loyal ones. The balance option should likely be changed to a lower NVR, or perhaps the scenario have a progressive NVR change instead. Otherwise, a fun way to dive into the SCW stuff, and light on night rules for beginners.
