Oh hellfire
Planes took out last ATG & 47Paks got another Char
Units aproaching wood hill from West & North have found several units & are at level 2 a couple ready to move to level 3, East force was in position to start entering when French infantry left woods & came round corner, boy did he get a surprise. Think he was moving for flag I have just taken or running from barrage possibly, morale going? Found 6-8 units lost count most still dug in, slow now we are in woods & no arty this turn so its coming for me.
About 1/2 a dozen squads + 2MMG 2 tanks & 2 AC behind treeline ready to push out on hill 1/2km away.
Some arty is finaly getting near its positions most aren't & apart from units in woods these guys are on speed wizzing along.
Briliant 222 survived & moved to safety not, he is leading a charmed life 3 Char-B1s (the easier ones marginaly) just roled in as reinforcements & missed.
Eek thats thrown a spanner in the works so much for morale going they are launching a counter offensive. More are bound to turn up & 1 turn earlier I would have been in a lot better position to counter it, thats life.
I hope this battle does not wind up early as I was just approaching main flag areas so French still control the majority. At 180 a pop they are valuable.
