Turn 16, about 3 turns after executing my quick attack
2nd Company sector, EN arty began falling south of the road, hitting my D1 HMG. My own arty was falling in and around the EN concentration, pinning them down as my units closed in. Some of my arty dropped slightly shorter, but it was a small risk to take. I generally like to keep around 200M (4 hexes) for safety distance, but when I start to close in, I'll reduce it to 150M or so.
1st Company has also began arriving along the road. I made a gamble and guessed that there isn't much of an EN presence along the road, otherwise that platoon on trucks will melt away very fast. The lone EN infantry section managed to destroy the truck but was quickly routed by the dismounting infantry.
EN infantry began to rout in the general direction of the yellow arrow, which began taking them closer to my 1st Company positions.
By Turn 19
Most EN units have been sweeped up by 1st Company along the flank and 2nd Company pressing from the centre.
