Default Re: CMBO AAR vs. Tomcat

Thats the one matelol (Next time I will make sure the infantry support is closer and mechanized.)

The general idea was that the left flank would just hold and the right would swing and end up at 180 degree angle instead of a 90 degree. The left flank held very well against your attacks.

Oh and musso, I knew that left attack was coming from the beginning, if you look at the map, I had a sniper Reconing the area from the start, just simply observing your moves. The only problem I had was when the attack came all my available forces were commited to pushing in the middle, so I had to quickly rush up 2 Field guns both of the TD's one which is more targeting the middle (my hinge) and I had to rush up the halftracks that were there. You could say it was a bit of a rag tag team. I am surprised that they held as well as they did though.

I did break your line in half though, and once I finally took that pocket of grenadeirs you had in the forest on my right flank (a pic would be good of that to) I would have been able to move 1 Firefly, 2 greyhounds, and around a company of infantry to the centre, to continue what I would have hoped to be a successful advance.

I had moved around 2 squads that were near the centre of to the right flank to assist with flanking your PanzerGrenadiers in the clup of wood as well, which were just arriving as we truced.

Back to your reserve infantry that was destroyed. There was a lynx? that was supporting them right? I noticed that it moved right up and was hidden behind a clump of trees. Since it made its way there, obviously not able to get out, I had the 2 greyhounds, 2 bazookas, and a couple of squads of infantry. I know, all that for one light tank
