[Gamla, Golan Heights]: [Side A/H2H][FIC][GD], August 18th, 1985, 00:00-05:00. "Duel For the Golan 85-Night" Optimized for Head to Head or IDF Human Play. The Syrian plan was for the 1st Corps, 5th and 7th Mechanized Infantry Divisions to pin and push back the IDF Al Rafid area defenses during the afternoon and evening of the 17th. After sunset the GHQ's 4th "Assad" Armored Division was to be passed through the gap and exploit toward the Jordan River bridges (held by the Syrian 554th Special Operations Force's Regiment). In the actual event the plan worked well with the IDF 188th "Barak" Armored Brigade pushed back in both the north and south leaving a gaping hole in the IDF defenses which was hastily filled by elements of the IDF 252 Reserve Udga. After sunset, the belligerents from the day's fighting either took up defensive positions or pulled back for refit and resupply. The Syrian problem was the Assad Division got bottled up in traffic and wasn't beginning to pass the cease fire line until after 23:00. By this time the IDF's 252nd Reserve Armored Udga had fought the 7th Mechanized Division to a standstill near El Al and other 252nd Units were rapidly moving to fill the gap. With moon set at 20:00 and clear skies just the stars and burning hulks lit the Golan as things were about to go bump in the night! My E-mail is [email protected] [All except Variable Visibility]
[SPECIAL DESIGNER NOTES - Units involved in the day's combat are for the most part fixed until engaged by the enemy as they are refitting and reconstituting. It is dark out (4 hex visibility) so use your recon to do what they were designed to do, recon!][Version 1.01]
