T23 Shaken not stirred
The BF & MF had there best turn for a while, the fight on the mound just collapsed most remaining units pulling back off it. This has freed up tanks to go & pay the AAgun a visit next go.
The MMGs opened up on the gun by the road & to my surprise totaly killed it, squad & JPz1 were ready to make a move on.
Forces are generaly getting in good positions to find the other gun though a temporary halt has occured in the middle of this advance, caused by two persistent squads & a bunker. Further North made a hard move supported by 2 MkIIIs & found some runners attacked 2 mortars killing one then ran into yet another bunker.
The 3 squads that form the North part of MF & are protecting flags report contact & send him running.
TF> You have probably guesed, more bunkers further back near the mound & 3 squads behind smoke turns out to be 6 & a sniper. Bit of an effort but everyone is running exept the sniper. In fact they are running so quick HQ has had to jump in a truck to try & cut off the exit. Could not go as far as he would have liked as its unknown territory.
I am having to task the pioneers with assisting with bunkers still have over a dozen left & the two I attacked this turn took 5 point blank hits without effect.
AIT> There arty is strugling to keep pace again so totaly innefective. AI lost about 9 men for none 3 in combat rest as ran. One of the casulties of combat was the sniper taken out by a MkIII. Tanks fired another 6 or more rounds at bunkers up close & personnal like for naff all.
T24 Swatting flys
Well despite bunkers front armour being 6/2 14 shots later 5 with overpenetration of 4 or 5 as high hit chance they are unscathed b@$$%#£s.
Pioneer had better luck attacked 3 damaging 2 & killing the third
More shots vs bunkers JPz1 gets an instant kill & out of about 6 MkIII hits get a damage & also seperate kill 2 occupants, thats better & a good thing to I am running into more. Otherwise just finding mortars mainly.
AIT> Arty is targeting my MMGs that took out the gun, only one Greek fired & he lost 3 men for the privelage.
