The Force for Greece
Total inc crews 8 shy of 900 men
The only change to the core is 2 trucks got upgraded to halftracks to help with the rougher terrain. This means we have outrun any support & will be going in on our own on this one.
We have been told some new tanks are available but they are being shipped to N.Africa where we will refit with them.
For all engagements Co A+B have 2 pioneers in place of squads & each Co gets 2 MMg & 2 scouts

The Situation
Assault vs Greece 31 turns visibility sunny 59 hexes, Shotgun objectives
The Map has a road running horizontaly 150m in from N & S edges & is 130 hexes wide with level 4 hills over a lot of it rissing to level 7 in the West.
Its about 50% woods 50% open the woods being in 3 major groups, 2 run down the middle E>W & the third is in lower left of map running like so \
These woods are the largest & cover a good portion of the major heights. Note they are not dense woods but rather loads of clumps of trees with 50m gaps in between so LOS could be fun
The North part of the heights is open with decent amounts of rough but at far North more trees & a large village, the road has veered in to about 500m by here
Objectives are spread out from the village mainly along the lower slopes & foothills of the highground meaning a stealthy approach is not possible as highly visible. The most Southern 4-5 are in the trees 2 being on the Southern slope of the hill
Ready for the off
Top force TF> A Co with Ram 2x Mk111 & 3x AC will move down the north road in transport to small wood overlooked by L4 hill smoke dropping on
Bottom Force BF> C Co minus 1 platoon with 4x trucks & 5x MkIII 3x JP are to set off down the South road hopefully to L4 hill
Mid Force MF> The Rest Move out to pass either side of central woods with the Mortars in tow & will decide a course of action dependant on what they find
