Setup

I got a good draw on the map and a decent draw on the unit quality and HQ bonus.

Here is the overhead.

red circle the Hedgehog Platoon- where I am rushing my best platoon (vets with a +2 morale bonus)
blue circle - reg platoon with +1M, +1C +1S bonus
purple circle - vet assault platoon - If my Hedgehog platoon cant survive, I will need this platoon to assault the patch of trees with the farthest big flag.
pink platoon - they are just a reg platoon with a sissy leader. They are holding my back right flank and in reserve. If I have to use these guys to get the flag I am in big trouble.
brown platoon - green platoon that is protecting My Hill.

The dominating feature of the map (IMO) is the big ridge on my side of the map that has cover and then god LOS to the flags.

Here is another shot of the left. The brown dots are a green platoon I am going to send over there to protect my HMG/mortar (blue dots/expected LOS) and a gun (yellow dot/expected LOS)

Here is a close up of the center. All three flags right in the center. Will be sending 4 platoons there. My best platoon is going to rush the flags and try to get a good position is a nice reverse slop spot past the flags. If I can get my full strength platoon there, I think the coil will have a really hard time pushing me out of the position

I am not sending anything to the right save this one gun. I think/hope I can get it to that yellow dot without being seen. If so it will have good LOS to the right side of the map and Coils biggest - where he might just choose to park a few TDs/SPguns.

I think the game will come down to two things.
1) will coil concede the big hill on my left to me. If so, it will be very hard for him to make a late game push to the flags. It is a very long way for him, but wouldnt be a bad strategy to try to run the hill. If I hold the hill I think I can at least get a draw.

2) Can I rush to the reverse slope spot past the flags and get hedge-hogged in. I am rushing with 3 stuarts and 2 M8s. If he sends heavier vehicles than that I will probably end up losing my best platoon and will have a hard time getting a victory.
