I have NATO thrust back against the French border after a disastrous invasion of Poland when they thought the units there were worn out from fighting in the east but walked into a classic case of
maskirovka mixed with underestimation. NATO are in desperate talks to stop Force de Frappe launch France's strategic arsenal as Soviet forces close on the border when the Spanish lunge into the Soviet's path with their outdated gear but immense courage. The Warsaw Pact, knowing they have almost no time, hammer the Spanish and French unmercifully before the rest of NATO reorganises and puts pressure on the vast flanks of the salient. The salient starts to get pinched off and the Soviets are chased all the way back to the Vistula.
