The Battle of Susangerd - January 5th, 1981

Important note: in order to win the scenario you have to destroy all enemy unit or find hide VH's.

Commander, a big tank force is on the way to attack our positions at
Susangerd. Pretend you will make a strategic withdrawal and I am sure
the Iranians will follow you. But you will wait for them in a ambush.
Use a few units as decoy. Good luck.

Historical Background:
Date January 5,1981-January 9,1981 
Three small Iranian armored regiments advanced towards Iraqi forces who had invaded Iranian territory between the towns of near Susangerd. The Iraqi forces were alerted to this movement and feigned a withdrawal. The Iraqis formed three armored regiments into a three-sided box ambush. The Iranians blundered into the ambush and the two tank forces battled for four days in a sea of mud. The Iranians withdrew, leaving many tanks stuck in the mud, or, because of logistical misplanning, out of fuel and ammunition. The condition of the terrain prevented a clean break from the battle and did not allow the Iraqi forces to pursue what was left of the Iranians task force.
