Three
players tackled this mission, and we welcomed a new member, Snake from across
the water in Scotland. DC has put some single payer work into it and discovered a way to avoid initial contact, while in the open, an approach which original lead to immediate heavy losses, and ultimately a failure of the mission objectives. The mission is in two parts, as we have not completed the second mission objective, ill concentrate on the first part. On our first attempts, we encountered Spetz natz in the forest, very close to our insertion point, and our group was quickly decimated, with little on no indication on direction of fire. Finally we moved further northeast, and kept the high ground on our east as cover, while remaining above the ridge in the forest, preventing line of sight from the south west.
We made it round to the edge of the forest and overlooked the village from the West. We left our AI team safely at the edge of the forest and, after a rigorous Recon of the south west, and around the village, progressed slowly down the north most part of the village. We used over bound movement to progress towards the town center, and finall engaged at close quarters behind the houses of the main street. We had two casualties, from a single lucky grenade. The nature of the environment meant close cover, and so put us at risk from such an attack. We continued on and cleared any remaining bogies, most of who were in the town center area, or on open space to the north. Finally, we cleared west to the edge of the town, and returned to the town center, Here we had another casualty from a lone gunman who was hold out prone, behind the north road out of the town. We go the all clear, and with 5 units, we re-equipped, taking on Steyr Aug's and satchel charges for part two of the mission. We jumped onto the waiting M113 APC, and it sped off towards our next objective, beyond Duras.
