A report of my best result in the 3 attempts i made.

After a cautious observation from a Ranger Scout squad , locating a bunker on an elevation and some troops nearby (counting a squad in the trench), i placed carefully each ranger squad for a 3 ways assault.
Reinforcements appeared, with the Flash squad.

Each units went to their positions , under the, fortunately, inaccurate fire of an away OPFOR that seemed to have seen a movement of one of the squads.

-the main force in the middle
-a Ranger MG squad, a ranger squad , the Flash squad in the north
-a Ranger squad and the Scout squad in the south.

Once the Flash squad was in position, they launched their flame rockets directly in the bunker and the trench under it, while an air support attacked mostly with inefficiency , but all the US squads rushed in the opposite trench position, trying to take advantage of the panic this heavy attack caused.

Despite encountering a resistance from an away trench and an OPFOR squad (the one that has suspected our movements) , the assault was progressing and the trench was took while the bunker was destroyed.
The Flash squad fire another set of Flame rockets directly in the away trench , with the help of some MG covering fire, it obviously blinded them as the north team could advance even more to the next slopes.

A rain of bullets , coming from a nearby second bunker and some squads coming to the rangers position while they were already fighting made several casualties.

Another air strike , this time a very lot more efficient bombing run destroyed several of those enemy squads advancing toward us , eliminated the enemy Hq and put some silence to the second bunker.

The second part of the assault could then begin while the opfor was trying to reorganize themselves and fight back.

Fortunately the Rangers squads repeated assaults forced them to flee the battlefield and they achieved to secure the area and so the 2 first objectives.
A last minute resistance from the silenced bunker that suddenly shot again at the rangers units and an unspotted enemy squad delayed the progression and caused more casualties.

But , with 3 ranger machineguns squads continuously harassing the bunker, forcing the crew to hide , and the defeat of the OPFOR that came in surprise, some assault teams sneaked in and finally destroyed the enemy bunker.

The last objective was then secured by a Ranger squad that gave no chances to the fleeing survivors of the bunker in the last turn of the scenario.

A Marginal Victory that produced 15 Rangers casualties and 75 OPFOR ones.
1379 points for the US side and 255 points for the Afghanistan side.
Without the Flash squad, i would have not been able to secure the objectives without more ranger casualties, (as it happened in my previous attempt that ended in a Draw).

A very interesting scenario, giving the user different kind of tactic choices for more replayability.
Thank you for it.
