I'm just trying the Relief of Vilnius scenario
http://www.blitzkrieg-commander.com/Downloads/P...

It's Turn 5 and the first Panther is still suppressed on the bridge (the only entry point) thanks to an ATR in the adjacent BUA and ATG in the nearby wood. Russian Reinforcements are about to be rolled for. There's not much point carrying on like this.
Has anyone else tried this scenario? Did you allow German deployment on the South of the river, opposite the Russians (not allowed on the map given), or maybe allowed the river to be fordable by infantry?
It makes most sense to allow some German deployment south of the river, so that's how I'll try it again. I'm just interested in what others have found.

Thanks Kalle
I tried a quick fix by adding some German artillery (which seems to be missing in the scenario) and some HE & smoke assets. They layed smoke at the exit of the bridge, and HE on the BUA for turns one and two. This gave them a foothold, but your scenario will be a great help. I'll look at it properly tomorrow.
