Zoomed out, I see the approaches, the ridges, the woods to my back. Most of the VLs are in Cachrov. Brodne is farther back. I placed my A, B, mechanics and support AFVs in Brodne. Main force in Cachrov behind the line. Start battle. Advance some of main force in Cachrov. Start picking off oncoming tanks and AFVs. Soon Brodne is overwelmed by more forces than I expected. Meanwhile Cachrov is getting hammered by arty. Suppressed units won't recover or move.

So, my previous comments are based on this. Bad tactics on my part? If the setup line is farther forward, I could spead out a little in Cachrov. Might not get caught as bad by arty or be able to keep moving away from the blast zone. Or should I let the enemy have Cachrov and retreat to Brodne?
