Scenario 04, Turn 02

Here is the southern advance area, along the Talisman Road. My Sho't Kal's have been successful in slowing the advance of the Egyptians and I have plotted all my artillery in suspected positions for next turn.

My final positions for the southern route. I plan to hold this position for a bit before falling back slowly.

During the Egyptian turn, the Egyptians have found my headquarters with blind artillery fire. No Effect, fortunately.

A Sho't Kal was forced to retreat from Egyptian fire.

Alas, they Egyptians scored a hit, causing a reduction and disruption against my lead platoons.

Scenario 04, Turn 03

The Egyptians are pushing hard along the Talisman Road. There appears to be about two battalions of tanks heading in my direction.

In the north, a company of Egyptian tanks and some infantry are probing my position.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn03_002.PNG]

Here is the overview of the position in the north with my core force.

By the end of my turn, I have caused some fairly significant damage along the Talisman road advance.

Scenario 04, Turn 04

The start of Turn 4, the Egyptians are advancing in force in the north.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn04_001.PNG]

In the south, they are pushing harder with significantly more units.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn04_002.PNG]

Here is a 3D view of the Egyptians in the south prior to my attacks.

After a few attacks, and I pulled back a few hexes in preparation for a continued assault.

Scenario 04, Turn 05

The start of Turn 5, I have been notified that received some reinforcements. Amen to that!

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn05_001.PNG]

And here they are consisting of a tank company with some supporting infantry. They came in from the north.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn05_002.PNG]

The situation in the north is contained now that I have the reinforcements. Hopefully I can keep the Egyptians bottled and off the north-south paved road.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn05_003.PNG]

The south has me shooting and pulling back. There are A LOT of Egyptians down here. My Cobra missile team has been lucky and taking out some small targets that have come into range. Unfortunately, I don't think they'll last long.

RE: Suez Campaign (LCG) - AAR - Jason Petho - 09-23-2016

Scenario 04, Turn 06

Here is the situation at the start of Turn 6. A plethora of Egyptians here in the south, who seem to be advancing straight for the Nozel position, where my Brigade Headquarters is located.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn06_001.PNG]

And the situation at the start of Turn 6 in the north. This area is more contained at the moment, which I'll be thankful for.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn06_002.PNG]

Here is a 3D view of the Northern section at the end of my turn. I caused quite a few casualties while only taking a couple losses.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn06_003.PNG]

In the south, I used a lot of direct fire, pulled back a bit. I have had to pull my infantry out of the frontline at Nozel as they have been taking some heavy losses.

Scenario 04, Turn 07

Starting Turn 7, the Egyptians are still advancing towards Nozel. I am attempting to hit the advancing tanks in the flanks as they get closer, using the obscured visibility from the sand dunes to inflict damage.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn07_001.PNG]

By the end of the turn, you can see I have managed to take a few of the advancing tanks out.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn07_003.PNG]

In the north, the are still advancing, but things seem a bit more contained.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn07_002.PNG]

Herding tactics in the north. I am slowly advancing from the north to corral the Egyptians into a better killing zone.

RE: Suez Campaign (LCG) - AAR - Jason Petho - 10-11-2016

Scenario 04, Turn 08

End of Turn 8, more Egyptians tanks have shown up, but I am managing to hold the line in the north. A rifle platoon is swinging west to gain a better Line of Sight to the rear area units where I can hopefully plot some useful artillery strikes in the coming turns.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn08_001.PNG]

In the south, the advance to Nozel has been stalled, with many Egyptian hulks burning. most of my losses in the south have been the infantry defending Nozel, the tanks in the area haven't suffered many casualties.

RE: Suez Campaign (LCG) - AAR - Jason Petho - 11-09-2016

Scenario 04, Turn 09

The situation at the beginning of Turn 9. You can see the Egyptians have managed to capture two of the Victory Location Points at the crossroads.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn09_001.PNG]

And the same timing for the south. An Egyptian platoon was extremely brave and attempted to take the Nozel position. It was quickly dispatched.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn09_002.PNG]

The end of the turn in the south sees a lot of Egyptian hulks. And that's OK. I secured Nozel again and brought up some reinforcements, just in case.

[Image: SuezLCG_Scen04_Turn09_003.PNG]

In the north, I am closing in on the main highway from the north, keeping the pressure on the Egyptians. Unfortunately, being more aggressive, I am taking more losses.
