WINTER ROAD, Korea 1950---BRIEFING:  The United Nations push 
to the Yalu has seen increasing contact with personnel from 
the Chinese Communist Forces who have crossed from Manchuria 
to support the crumbling North Korean Army as it is driven 
back to the border.  As the UN forces advance north along 
the primitive road net, supply convoys struggling to keep up, 
NKA and CCF troops infiltrating through the mountains and 
setting up roadblocks have become a serious menace and large 
groupings have mauled several ROK Army detachments.   

Task Force Winter has been assigned to secure the key road 
junction and supply road through Koto-ni against infiltrators. 
Colonel Winter has sent a reinforced company ahead to secure the 
route and escort a column of heavy artillery to firing positions 
in Koto-ni.  The snow has cut visibility in the mountains, but 
is not yet a serious obstacle to movement.  Air support is 
available as necessary.
          
DESIGN NOTES:  I suggest playing the U.S. until you get tired or 
win a DV, then trying the CCF.  The map and units were designed 
starting with a generated battle which was customized and tested 
using the editor.    The American forces in Korea had a WW2-hardened 
officer corps but a lot of raw recruits in the ranks, and relied 
heavily on superior firepower and C3 combined with mobility through 
motor transport.  The CCF relied on small arms, mortars and machine 
guns, all carried on foot, and the ranks contained many veterans 
of the Chinese Civil War.  Load this file into your SCEN 
subdirectory to receive the pre-battle briefing. 
Note: VP wise, the town and the road home are the most 
important, but VPs here aren't as important as in other 
SP Scenarios--VP hexes range from 10-40VPs. I recommend turning unit 
tags on lest the US and CCF units look too much alike (unless you want 
to simulate some of the real-life confusion of the war in this period).
