Overview:
Previously released as "Son Servera". . . The Republic found itself on the move during August 1936. Among other initiatives, on 9 August a Catalan and Valencian expeditionary force under air force captain, Alberto Bayo, arrived in Ibizia in a requisitioned luxury liner, with two destroyers, a submarine and six aircraft in escort. A few days later, Bayo arrived on the island of Majorca, quite without the knowledge of the ministry of war in Madrid. Operation commenced on 16 August as Bayo disembarked with 8,000 men on the east coast. That evening, six 75 millimeter and four 105 millimeter guns were also off-loaded at Porto Christo. Bayo's column advanced north towards the towns of Son Servera and Son Carrio. Expecting the same lack of resistance experienced the previous day, Bayo's men were sorely disabused of that notion when Nationalist troops of the Ordovas column, Falangists and Guardia Civil were encountered.Attacker: Republican (Regular Army elements of the Baleares Regiment and Anarchist Militia from the Roja y Negro column)
Defender: Nationalist (Elements of the Guardia Civil and Falangists from the Ordovas column)

| 2022-09-11 | (A) Jobbo Fett | vs | RootinPutin | Republican win | Things were tight until surrounding an enemy squad allowed me to take prisoners, which was a deciding factor as time was running out and I slowly crept up the CVP numbers to my required objectives. Its an interesting scenario, which is a little surprising to say about CH. I think it was hampered by neither of us truly grocking the scenario, but kudos to RootinPutin for sticking with it and doing his damnedest to pour murderous fire, especially from a squad/MMG combo that lasted a surprisingly long amount of time. Special mention to the sniper that just wanted to pin my crews as often as possible, and the various guns and LMGs breaking. The CH map was kinda nice, too bad it doesn't have functional LOS oh, I should say that the scenario (and the rest in the pack) are seriously hampered by the breadth of changes and additions in terms of special counters, which never made the transition to VASL, and the amount of rule changes/exceptions that make it hard to grasp quickly |
