Re: DAR: Russia
Turn 4
North Sector: Destroyed three BRDM-2s and pounded on some scout units with my tanks. My AT teams are almost out of missiles and are pulling back for resupply. I will reposition my tanks next turn. Enemy artillery can't be too far into the future.
Central Sector: All four enemy tanks on or around the bridge have been destroyed. A combination of AT teams, infantry assaults and M1A2 fire was too much. A fifth was destroyed farther back. Somewhere, there is one last T-90A. I lost track of it last turn and don't know where it is. There is the FOW some people talk about. I'm moving my units out of the contact point because enemy artillery is likely soon. Two enemy BRDM-2s have penetrated into the woods and beyond my main infantry line. I can either swarm them with M113s or get my gunships after them.
South Sector: Destroyed last three T-90As in the area, plus the last T-62M1V. All I see now are retreating crews. I'm pulling back here for resupply as well.
Comments: I guess I'm not finding the T-90A to be the big, bad boogieman that it has been described as being. They burn as well as any other tanks. Out of 15 seen, 14 have been destroyed by artillery, Javelins, M1A2 fire and one good, old fashioned infantry assault. My tanks, which are curiously defined as "obsolete" destroyed six and were fired at once. It missed. My gunships did pepper them with some 30mm, but they didn't fire any missiles.
Casualties
Friendly: Zero.
Enemy: Eight T-90As, one T-62M1V and three BRDM-2s, estimated 30 enemy casualties.
I'm done for tonight. Here are some screen prints of some ill-treated Russian tanks.
