Re: DAR: Sant' Angelo, Italy
Turn 22
Group 1 is pushing forward some to engage the one M10 down the road.
Action on Hill 1 is slow with all the artillery craters. There are only two known squads left, but they are difficult to get to with the M10s firing from the reverse slope. A Sherman tank opened up from a position 500m behind the M10s. Tigers are pushing forward to assist, but won't tangle with the M10s by themselves. Mines have finally been spotted. They are on the reverse slope of Hill 1.
Group 3 is starting to enter the woods. A scout team spotted and traded fire with a bazooka team. The engineers are in the lead, so they will take care of them.
A grenadiers company and platoon of Tigers are West of the stream now. One tank company and grenadiers company are still East of the stream. I really don't like having a column a click long on the road. They tend to attract artillery.
Enemy artillery seems to be taking a break. Three of my howitzer crews have recovered and I hope the fourth does before it leaves the map.
Friendly artillery is still hitting the enemy M10s and positions on Hill 1.
Casualties
Friendly: Estimated 3 casualties.
Enemy: Estimated 5 casualties.
