June 6 1944 Morning

Next is the Periers Ridge, sector just west of the Sword Beach. The area is surrounded with hedgerows. Small village in the center of the map and a church to the north. Enemy is holding the church and it´s surroundings.

I have to advantage carefully here, intel says that the Krauts have some AT guns here.

My plan is to slowly advance towards the church and secure the road and the buildings surrounding the road.

The red area is my objective, black is in enemy hands.

My troops

My troops attacking the road from east.

The church was heavily defended and my troops suffered heavy casualties, resulting in retreat of one squad.

Enemy launched an attack towards the village through the forest south of the church. After fierce fight, the enemy retreated with heavy casualties.

Germans were about to launch a counter-attack to capture back the road, I quickly ordered an airstrike which halted the attack.

Debriefing
I was unable to secure the forest southwest of the church as germans had it covered with two AT guns. We´ll rest for awhile before making a new attack.

Hero of the day
