The Bear Marches West

Weather
Fine weather, starlit night.
Deployments
U.S. forces are deployed in prepared positions on the western half of the table. Their positions should be
marked on a map, and not placed until they become visible.
Soviet forces enter the table from any point in the eastern third of the table. They may split their forces
and enter from multiple points if they wish, but each unit's entry point must be decided before the game
begins.

In order to claim a victory, the Soviets have to take the two hills. If they can rout or destroy more than
half the U.S. forces, they can claim a major victory.
