The fighting has slowed somewhat as I get most of my troops moving to safer positions. The Russian tanks have moved and are again able to fire at several of my squads from an effective distance. The enemy has gotten this tactic down to a science.
Enemy squads are again on the move across the map towards my large flag. I may have hurt him more then I know, as it seems to have taken a little longer then I expected for the Russians to start to move again after the initial first few turns. My platoons are going to cross the road and then prepare to hold at all costs, the large flag. I believe that I have bought myself some time over the last turns and I am counting on a much more caucious enemy, as he moves through the trees. I may lose one squad as I just cannot seem to get him rallied and the Russians are moving in fast now. I consider it nothing more then good luck as to my men's ability to rally when things looked a little bad for them here a few turns back.
My men have been cought in a bad crossfire of machine guns and rifle fire in the fields. Have taken 12 casualties, but I am pinned down. I am still not panic'd or worse, but I will have to give a WITHDRAW order soon so that I stand at least a chance to make it to safety.
The AT Gun blazed away for a short time but I do not think that anything serious came of it. I am sure now that the Russians know where it is located, but I feel that there is little choice but to leave it in position and deal with whatever he throws at it over the next few turns.
