A Strong Response - DAR

[Ratzki]

At the right small flag the Russians are advancing with what looks to be a couple of platoons of infantry. He has one tank that has been area firing into the building at the flag, but as I have no men there, no harm done. It is a good thing that I decided to let this flag go, I do not think that with this kind of enemy firepower, that I would have survived. The platoon that was here is now needed more then ever in my centre.
I have managed to hold off the Russian hordes by the skinof my teeth. I dropped some 81mm HE on my own and enemy positions. Actually, it is just barely getting my men every now and then, but after almost a full turn, it has done no damage to my men. At the moment I have three broken squads and a couple panic'd squads. Mostly due to the Russian tanks and infantry being able to tag team some of my units. I think that I have moved out of LOS for the time being, but now I may lose a whole platoon if I can not get these guys to rally. I am going to pull back to better positions with the units that are ok and let the better Co.HQ take care of trying to rally the men. The goal here is to make some form of fighting withdrawl to the large flag that is just out of sight at the bottom of this screenshot on the road.
My platoon at the top left manages to ambush two enemy platoons, one in the open fields and the other as it moves through the trees. The bad news here is that I do not have a very good exit path to safety with this platoon. I will stick around here for a little while but I have every intention of getting outa here before a large number of enemy troops show up. There is a slight elevation rise between this platoon and the Russian tanks, so they are unable to shoot at me for the time being.
My ATR's are firing away like mad, but it does not appear as I have done anything yet. I should be able to score a kill if I get a good flank shot in on his light armour, willl have to wait and see.
I have enough 81mm HE for another half turn or so, I have repositioned my FO's target so I should be able to spread out the fire over the end of next turn and maybe the one after.
