INTRODUCTION:*
This mission is an introduction to the Panzerjaeger Battalion, the most modern and best equiped tactical unit in Finnish Army. In this mission you will follow the tactical principles of the battalion, and conduct 2 of the 3 phases of a standard attack (with the main attack starting when you succesfully complete this mission). Mission size is approximately reinforced company vs. reinforced company, with battle starting as a meeting-engagement and then developing, hopefully, into breakthrough.*

ENEMY:*
The attacking forces of the 200th Motor Rifle Brigade have been advancing steadily against our delaying troops. With our Sissi attacks reducing the supply flow, the units that broke through deepest are running out of steam. With the enemy stopped, even for a short moment, our counter-attack will be directed to take them out.*

OWN:*
Karelian Brigade is attacking to destroy the worn out brigade. Leading the attack is your 1st PzJaeger Battalion. You are supported by the Brigade's Artillery Bn (ICM, HE, SMOKE) and also have a Ranger UAV at your disposal. Later on the air force may be able to support your fighting with a wing of Hornets with AT-weapons.*
*
Your attack begins with the recce/ATGM group, supported by platoon of AMOS and the artillery. With this group you will reconnoiter the enemy and start harassing it with Artillery and destroy any tanks with ATGMs. In some 30-40 minutes the lead company (cross-attached PzJaeger Company, rest of AMOS Company, Combat engineer detachment) will arrive and you will need to use this force to destroy the enemies in your AOR, while keeping the recce boys alive and sniffing the danger!*  
*
MISSION:*
Attack along the main road, destroy the defending enemies. You will win by taking command of the VPs and keeping casualties low.*
