Default Re: Libya 2011 Noob AAR Campaign

Turn 9 - 10

Amidst the cheering, a second T72 emerges. Shouts and calls to action ensue, Libyan tanks are pushed from their entrenchments on The Fort, to aid the the sole tank engaging the T72. A second duel erupts as tank shells whittle across the desert. Unexpected AA 30mm cannon tears across the hill sending Libyan soldiers diving for cover.

Under bombardment from two T62's the T72 releases smoke. Libyan soldiers duck and weave, as tension mounts within them.

In the meantime the Northern Wing streaks ahead, seizing objectives and finding zero opposition.

South of the the fort, a flash of light bursts from the clouds of smoke and dust. A high speed Anti Tank missile obliterates a T62. Fragments of hot steel spilling over panicking troops. Before they can recover two more flashes are seen, as missilse streak towards The Fort slamming into the second reinforcing T62. The second missile almost tears a BMP in half, its innards exploding in a ball of fire.

With three of their armour vehicles burning aflame, a concentrated barrage crashes among the Libyan soldiers, several of them collapsing, their limbs blown off, others screaming in agony.

Fatah now embedded among his men shouts for the vehicles to be pulled back from the ridge onto the other side of the hill. Plumes of exhause smoke burst forth as the vehicles retreat into cover, leaving the Libyan soldiers alone before the advancing Algerian infantry.

As they do the lurking T72 fires a distant round, striking a retreating BMP. The vehicle bursts into flames, its crew fleeing for their lives.

A lack of artillery observers at the front line leaves much of the Libyan artillery useless, only the D30 guns can be ordered to fire towards the encroaching Algerian infantry.

Meanwhile the Northern Wing, it's formations stretched between fast APC's and troops in foot finally encounter some of the enemy. Pockets of Algerian mortar crews, who abandon their guns surrender immediately.
