SF> Scout enters tree line, 3 squads at 200m if vehicles use the bit of depression to North should be safe from ATGs so 231 introduces Germany to the Soviets, 2 Hts & M3 join in all pinned or worse so sqaud moves to trees routes them all but recieves fire. HT risks fire & pinns before moving behind trees, MMGs move up another 2 sighted, lose a man. One of these squads is on L1, tanks further back manage to rout him. this means we have been seen for at least one turn possibly 2. Other vehicles move up & we have all 6 running. Perhaps foolishly scout & a squad leave trees squad recieves fire from a squad to S & a Maxim HMG in E woods, not worried about squad several vehicles will fire at but remaining vehicles risk ATGs to engage HMG routing it to, lucky really all but one was moving fast.
CF> One scout is in position to see if its safe to continue along the depresion the other exits on his way to the next depression, a MMG & ATG will follow him.
NF> Scout is out of the small depresion others will follow.
in the big depresion scout is tentativly entering where it opens up & has buildings in sight. Platoon unloads behind some trees ready to follow, rest are playing catchup tanks now 500m back but 2 squads are ready to move to L1 so we have some eyes there.
AA has gone as far as it dare for the moment, holding position as cover CF & some of NF
AIT> The squad & maxim both fire squad losing a couple of men.
AI drops smoke well forward of my NF arty there could well have been for nought.
Spotters come in & despite vision do an exelent job, one recieves fire from DT AAMG but is fine.
Turns out there are 8 squads at L1 covering the road & the same again S & E of my present position, may be more in woods that they did not see.
4 of the original squads are running.
