DAR: USSR vs Poland

[RERomine]

Turn 3

Truck mounted units of Force 1 on Hill 1. Sighted three enemy TKs of one type or another advancing down the South Road. Dismounted units from trucks. Since I can see the enemy, the enemy can see me and incoming artillery expected before long.

One enemy Vickers tank sighted in field northwest of Hill 2 by recon unit advancing down South Road. Captured one flag near road to try to draw enemy artillery in on an open field.

Other forces advancing as planned.

Casualties

Friendly: Zero.

Enemy: Zero.

Turn 4

More Force 1 units moving into position on and around Hill 1. One platoon held back in reserve.

Force 3 halted their advance down the South Road and took up positions to engage the advancing Polish TKs. I set the range of my tanks and AC to all fire at the same spot, which they did. Now, fast moving targets, targets that are small, my force experience of 50, yes, they all missed

Other AC on Hill 2 and nearly in position. Still only one Vickers tank in sight.

Forces 2 and 4 still moving to positions.

Casualties

Friendly: Zero.

Enemy: Zero.

Turn 5

Positioning HMGs and ATGs on Hill 1. Set range to 1/2 on HMGs and 1/4 on ATGs. No sense firing with little chance to hit. Decided to position one infantry platoon in woods along North Road just north of Hill 1. Enemy mortars dropped smoke north of Hill 1, blinding the platoon that just positioned in the woods.
Another platoon moving up east slope of hill and not in position yet.

On South Road, Force 3 had better luck against the Polish tankettes this time. Scratch four. Moved my light tanks into the North Woods to clear the road for the infantry coming up from the rear. One medium tank is swinging around some trees south of the road to get a shot at the Vickers tank.

AC unit in position on Hill 2. HMGs in truck moving onto hill now. I'm going to temporarily position them covering the field southwest of the hill until the infantry arrives.

Force 4 MGs mostly in position. Set range to three to engage anyone who happens on too close, but don't want to trip the ambush too early. I used my tanks to help get them in position quicker. Dismounted leg scouts on the west side of South Woods. No enemy sited in this area.

Casualties

Friendly: Zero.

Enemy: 3xTKS and 1xTKS.m tankettes destroyed.
