Default Re: Polish Hordes

Aw, sissy stuff. The problem is having any sort of cover with something of a clearing for the poles to be shot in. If it can be assumed that there are no poles west of the revealed positions, then the infantry can march to the hex NW of the tank at the edge of the marsh, and the hex W of that one. What to do with the other 2 inf squads is anybody's guess. Perhaps backup to those forward cover positions when those inf possibly get shot up, or occupying flanks somewhere.

I would use the seen tank to shoot up the poles east of the river, and take the additional tank and move it up to either the hex E of the forward tank, or SE, with the same mission as the other tank (I think I favor the E position, because it can help bring fire to the units west of the river if needed. This is very doable, the only problem is any unseen western units there may be, coupled with the fact that these forces will bottle up these units for a good long time.

If this game allows marsh AFV use, I would probably place both AFV's there, but not right away, as those spots offer more vision, but also weak sides to ATR's at close range.

My guess is that there are 1 or 2 unseen squads west of the river.
