Slide 37
I'm no where near ready for this slide yet, so unfortunately there is no slide yet to explain the mission, or the plan.
This is purely a copy this layout, and it will get you into the forest with minimal casualties slide.
To ensure your lines of communications are kept clear of the enemy use your artillery and werfer units to line the road, nicely spaced out.
Move them into position along it as soon as it is safe for them to do so.
Artillery is no good in attack but it is great for holding ground, once deployed into cover.
Just a quick note on micro management, and interference levels of play.
This slide is very high micro management. You can get similar results by using the 2 Bn's just detach the support units, give 1 Bn HQ 989 Gren Regt an order to move in Arrow head formation so that it passes just outside LOS of the entrenched enemy at the road junction to its South, by passing it to the North, and the other Bn a defend order roughly along the line of the Hockerlinie where they are in my slide.
You can do this whole scenario with just using Bn level, and Regimental level attacks, but you won't get as good results.
Its like most things in life, you get out what you put in.
My attacks in the south are at a higher level of command, Bn or Regimental, because they are not attacking across open ground, they are already in the forest, but the ones in the North start very close to the enemy position, with an expanse of no mans land to cross, and you only have 1 hour of darkness left, so there is no time for re-Orgs they need to get moving right away.
There organization is maxed out at the start of the scenario anyway so just get them moving!
Daylight is coming, and its an infantry mans worst nightmare in open terrain, on the offensive.
Edit: Fixed typo that may have caused confusion for 1, 2, and 3 Coy 989 Gren Regt, follow on moves once entering forest
