Hm. It does show the city as being rubbled on the Poland map in the BYB. Damn. I should have checked that FIRST.
Is it on the nuclear hit list?
If not, I think the scenario is still viable. The city will be badly damaged by earlier conventional fighting, but certain areas will still be standing and some rebuilding will have taken place in the last couple of years. It seems like a good spot to live in that it has easy access to the sea (fish) and is surrounded by agricultural land.
I was thinking about adding a bridging unit. If the city's been smashed up, it likely that the bridge over the Elblag canal is either down or damaged so much so that heavy MBTs like the M1 wouldn't be able to cross. That would also give Corps more motivation to seize the remains of the city and repair/replace the bridge in order to speed the passage of 8th ID.
I will add B Company Bridge, 6th Engineer Support Battalion to the OOB.
