Campaign Series Middle East: Hot Knife Through Butter - AAR/PBEM

[Jason Petho]

Turn 7

Dahr El Ahmar

The T-72's are making an appear in the west north of HILL 1036. I am using an infantry screen to halt their advance. The only way this tactic will work is if I can get Line of Sight onto his armour while they are sitting out into the open with my TOW's and Magach 6's.

If he breaks through the infantry, I'm going to have an exceptionally bad day.

I am swinging some troops to the woods and high ground between Dahr El Ahmar and HILL 1289, with the intention of securing that flank from any surprises.





Kfar Mechki

The Syrians are taking some losses in the pass, but haven't advanced too far yet.  The screen in the village is still holding, although I moved one infantry platoon back out of Line of Sight. The Syrians have quite a bit of artillery and they are taking their toll on my infantry.

I am advancing an infantry company south of HILL 1187 and have run into a BMP company with some supporting Sagger's. I'll hold this position for a few turns before retreating back up to the ridge.
