[Hula Valley, Israel]: [Side A/H2H][FIC][GD], August 18th, 1985, 02:00-05:00: "Duel For The Golan 85- Bridges" Suggested you play as Side "A" the IDF, or Head to Head. The Syrian plan included inserting commandos via airmobile landings at the Jordan River bridges in the Hula Valley. The idea was, at least for a while, to seal off the northern Golan from reinforcement and resupply. The Syrian 554th Special Forces battalion was assigned to this task while other SOF battalions conducted raids on command and control activities and logistics sites. With days to mobilize before the outbreak of this round of fighting and years to wargame out the likely Syrian attacks the IDF was hardly caught unawares. IDF/IAF assets took a heavy toll on Syrian helicopters and commandos on their way to their raids. Still enough raiders got through to dislodge the defenders and seize most of the bridges. With the 36th Udga fighting a brutal holding action on the Golan, and having sent scratch/security forces to the escarpment to keep commandos from seizing positions there, it would be up to reserve units the 162nd Reserve Armored Udga's Nahal Brigade to clear the way. The Nahal Brigade's units rolled out of their bases by 16:00 but were not into attack position until after Midnight. Unfortunately for them an assault couldn't wait until morning, they would launch a despite night assault against the Syrian positions! My E-mail is [email protected] [All]

DESIGNER NOTES - Suggest you take your time, as you have three hours/30 turns, and concentrate against the various bridges one at a time. Be careful to use your M-113 APCs as transport from one engagement to another. They are too light to fight and of better use shuttling forces from one bridge to another. To achieve a Major Victory you will have to seize all four Jordan River crossings with minimal casualities.][Version 1.01]
