Turn 19 end
Screen shows situation at the end - added blue text which refers to later on.
We managed to take out our targets with shots to spare so MkIV's also took out a Sherman as a bonus.
Damaged one Sherman in AI turn then destroyed all remaining tanks in our next turn.
The hidden Churchill was fast moving (for a Churchill) as we had placed smoke to stop it getting a firing position, MkIV finished it in the end.
As shown there was a infantry platoon defending the South, easy as artillery caused them to retreat however the marksman (M) did not.
Game went to turn 24 before we found him as you can see on the GIF.
British force was totally destroyed no unit on the map.
Decisive Victory - GIF shows we spent half the battle clearing North of the hill but once we attacked the other side progress was rapid.
Maintaining a smoke screen for that length of time without getting a nasty surprise because of a gap is fairly hard though. It was more complex than I expected but in the end MkIV's did pull their weight & got quite a few kills.
