Sounds like real life Anzio to me. Couldn't resist when I saw the topic. The following ships exploits in this discussion area are well known to me from my Naval background and history studies.

Good topic and good advice about FOO. Many refs. would say or suggest on this topic the importance of these missions coordinated with a naval FOO or other in the success of the mission against armor etc. Andy's test and therefore the game itself represents exactly what history has already shown.

Regards,
Pat
