Main Event V: Owl vs. Der Kuenstler

[Joonny]

End of Turn 4

DK has TF-D into the housing estate, 2 platoon in a light building each with one squad on the top floor for overwatch. Risky strategy as one barrage of HE could decimate an entire plt, don't think Owl has LOS to here though.



TF-C has regained it's composure now but there is one squad that is done for, if DK can get this squad back into the battle it will be a long time before he does.



TF-A is entering the woods south of the logging camp. DK has mounted 3 flamethrowers and an MMG in HTs.

TF-B is moving towards the mayors house, not sure whether he is going to hold here or push on for the town square.



Owl has secure the train station with half of KG-A but the walking component of KG-A is still heading for a world of pain, it's slowly getting surrounded by 4 plts of inf and 1 plt of shermans



Owl seems to be setting up a permiter to the eastern edge of the town square, this should screen him slightly from TF-Ds advances but there is still TF-A and TF-B aswell as DKs recon force to his west, he has left the western approaches to the town pretty open.




KG-D is heading into the woods, looks like they are going to clash head on with TF-A and DK's recon force is in a good position to get in on their flank or even behind them. Owl has StuGs in the area, but they won't be able to help out if the fighting occurs deep in the woods.



It looks like DK will have the upper hand with the initial engagements, Owls spread out infantry is going to struggle against DKs concentrated infantry formations. However Owl does have an extra flag either under his control or which it is almost impossible for DK to get at the moment. It's going to be very difficult for DK to shift Owl out of the town square and I think the town square will be very low on DK's list of priorities.

Hopefully we she see some combat within the next few turns.
