5 tank force - half a dozen planes made passes as expected no effect all turret hits last bomber making its run next go then smoking & kicking off attack, no other units found.

Just over a third of the way down the map & the enemy is in an Lshape made it to tree line on the hill without problems but so far can see 6 troops & 3 Char-Bs. The chars are at the intersect of the L & stretch along the horizontal line & the ATG is there somewhere an FJ looking for took 3 casulties from an unseen HMG & there is at least 1 more Char that missed my armoured car, things are hotting up.
Enemy is in woods on 2 hills & open that I have to approach across.
Idealy I would like to scout a bit West & place MMGs AAA for support fire but time beckons going to have to take risks.
Considering this means I still have half the map with unknown forces I was right in that I can't hang about. Tank force I have found so far is now the size of my armour & those pioneers take 2 turns to fully rearm. The attack is in danger of stalling due to the amount of armour present.
Enemy arty will become more dangerous as generaly I have managed to keep it falling behind me the last few turns just pinning the odd troop.
I hope we get a lock for CB fire soon because I am going to need those guns.
About a 1/4 of my arty is out or critical on ammo so attacking across the whole front will start to become unviable.
Expecting some armour loses now.
Forgot other AAA taken out without loss
