Thanks for the feedback. I was unsure of the difficulty level. Something that is hard to judge when playing your own designed scenario. I got a decisive and marginal victory.
I wanted to give the impression of surprise a little bit, hence the "half deployed" force. Letting the played choose where to send those all importance reserves.
I myself usually prefer hi-tech battles, but I thought for my first attempt I`ll try something small. The idea is to perhaps develop it into a small campaign based around the historical event and what could have happened. Perhaps I`ll incorporate a few "hi-tech" surprises (well, as hi-tech as you can get in 1961

!!!) in the campaign.
