My impression from the scen (fom Israeli side) is that DV for Hammas would be very hard to get, OTOH stated goal for Hamas is "cause as many casaulties as you can", so compare the result more in the form of bodycount than points...

Nice scenario that despite its relatively small size offers plenty of tactical possibilities. And is fun. Thanks!

I just got a decisive victory. I lost 21 men and had an APC immobilized. About have of my men were lost in a friendly fire incident with the 155s. Crap!

Then you got even more real results - AFAIK out of 5 IDF dead so far in the ground op, 4 were killed in a "blue-on-blue" (and Golani Brigade CO and XO were injured in the same incident - the CO refused MEDEVAC, so probably only lightly wounded, but still...)

Thanks Mark

This one played well. I don't think the helo is all that necessary. It was fun to play with. By the time it showed up I had taken the 1st ring and was working into the the next one and had my tanks and artillery pounding the last wrung of houses. I lost 5 men all to booby traps. Fun little scenario that is getting better each version.

Thanks again.
