Turn 7 (54:00 - 53:00)
Ok, think I've figured out Crécy's plan. Looks to me like he wants to play
defensively. He got troops on both flanks and in the center.
PzIVH is ordered to support 3/1 by the Duries Farm and the scout team
and one pioneer squad from the 2 Plt start crawling northwards along my right
flank. My aim is to make one big push from the right, just after my mortar
strike ends. Left flank will act as the situation calls.
Turn 8 (53:00 - 52:00)
He shoots,
and he scooooores!
Tho, I (once again) lost the commander of the tank to smallarms fire.
Other than that, not much happened. 4/1 heads over to 3/1 and 2 Plt continues
to crawl northwards on the right flank.
Turn 9 (52:00 - 51:00)
Oh.. scratch that defensive BS, then. Guess my spotting rounds forced him
to start moving or something. Anywho, the biggest push seems to be coming
down my right flank.. which is kinda bad. Another point he is attacking from
is the center, so I adjust the mortars to area target the buildings there.
Left flank seems normal, no attack from there. I'll move the 1 Ptl forward
slowly.
"Uh.. should we shoot them, Fritz?"
"Nein! Our orders are to crawl slowly and hold fire!"
"Jawohl!"
