RE: RNL vs Jobu88 QBME [Jobu88 - keep out!]
Evaluation of current situation
The Allied forces have occupied and secured the left flag, with no enemy forces in sight. On the right the Allied infantry have been interdicted on their way to the flag; they have been shaken up pretty badly by what looks like a couple of panthers and some infantry. The Allied infantry on the right are vulnerable now and have not reached their objective positions. They cannot stand against panthers without armour support.
It seems that the Axis have a platoon of Panthers in the area along with some unidentified infantry. I should probably assume that the main focus of the Axis effort [Schwerpunkt] will be against the right flag.
The plan needs to adapt to the current situation; I will
• Rally the Allied infantry by getting them into command; hiding where appropriate and setting cover arcs – their primary task is to hold ground
• Stop the Maxim and mortar teams where the broken squad is, they should still have good observation and fields of fire on the right flag
• Bring 2 platoons of the T-34/85s over to the right and position the SU-76M into a keyhole position – their primary task is to knock-out enemy armour
