Hi,
After a 82mm/120mm mortars preparation, the SOUTH group start moving slowly.
First US defense line (infantries and tanks) is discovered in front and on the hill; after an exchange of fire, the first US tank explose.
The visibility is poor and soviet soldiers move very slowly: max 2 hexes each turn. This is a big problem again. Tanks have too stop their advance.
Soviet group have to be carefull, US tanks are in good position on the small hill. 122mm howitzers are called to supress them quickly. Unfortunatly, no air support is availaible.
Many AT tank guns (3in M5) are discovered; hopefully, they are not enought powerfull to destroy our mighty IS-3s... but enought against infantry and light vehicles.
These guns disapear very fast under the fire of soviet tanks and the group start moving again.
US bazooka team destroy one tanks on the bridge... Hopefully the crew bail out and others soviet units protect them very quickly: they are safe.
I dont know if it's the patch, but it's the first time US army is organized like that and have so many different weapon system.
Thank you!
