Default Re: Difficult scenarios & campaigns?

So which ones have you played Badger? From my experience, defensive battles and meeting engagements are the easiest, while assaults are hardest. Advances are somewhere in-between.

I've found the 29th Infantry campaign to be quite difficult; couldn't even finish it since I got wiped out in the seventh(?) battle. Gotta try it again sometime. The Kursk campaign seems easier, if only 'cuz the first two scenarios are rather simple, even a bit tedious. But things start hotting up in the third. What makes it interesting (for some--others don't like it) is the designer's use of "encroached setup," in which some opposing units are intermingled on both sides of the starting line.

As for scenarios, #18 Grudge Match, #46 Totenkopf Attacks, #73 Return to Guam, and #90 Attack on Czerkasy are quite difficult IMHO. You'll notice they're all assaults, so you can expect a challenge.

BTW I've already posted my reactions to most of these with separate threads in this forum. You may peruse them at your leisure.
