Motostrelki "Prancing Weasel" BTR1 with 3/1/1 Inf and 3/1 HQ BTR2 with 3/1/2 Inf BTR3 with 3/1/3 Inf  Deploy next to roads as not to hinder traffic, let other parts of the battle group pass first. Try to keep the eager troops to keep to this company schedule if possible: 3HQ 3/3 3 Armoured 3/1 <- 3/2 When on the turn have about 20 seconds between each vehicle. Move the BTR1 (red) with loaded 3/1/1 Inf and 3/1 HQ into the town, park next to the house and deploy, keep BTR behind the house concealed. Move HQ into the 1/1 double house. Face SE Move 3/1/1 Inf into the house. Face S Move the BTR2 (orange) along the roads and deploy in the woods, keep the BTR a bit away from the infantry which take the front. Face SE Move the BTR3 (dark red) along the roads and deploy in the woods, keep the BTR a bit away from the infantry which take the front.

I'm far from an expert but one thing I could see in the combat mission games so far is that FIRING ARCS ARE THE BRINGER OF DEATH AND DESTRUCTION. FRUSTRATION WILL BE CAST UPON THE ONE WHO WILLS THEM UPON HIS ENEMY. Facing directions are probably more what you're looking for. I should add these to my orders as well. Completely unrelated, how could we deal with the enemy following the mountain roads to the south of victory road all the way to the west edge of the map and then border hugging north to their exit point? I guess there is no such thing as a 'mission complete' when any unit of them reaches the road or am I wrong?

3./1. Motostrelki "Prancing Weasel" BTR1 with 3/1/1 Inf and 3/1 HQ BTR2 with 3/1/2 Inf BTR3 with 3/1/3 Inf  Phone posting - sorry for the cruddy quality. Intention: redeploy troops to the marked "3rd coy b" territory along victory road. To do that, pack up the infantry back into their BTRs and drive those along the roads or through passable terrain to their target locations. Once there, dismount the infantry and disperse in the woods. Pack up the HQ and 3/1/1 in BTR1 and follow (red). At location dismount 3/1/1 and drive BTR further into woods to counter splash explosion damage. Face ESE Pack up 3/1/2 in BTR2 and follow (blue) along the roads and deploy in the woods, keep the BTR a bit away from the infantry which take the front. Face SE Pack up 3/1/3 in BTR3 and follow (orange) along the roads and deploy in the woods, keep the BTR a bit away from the infantry which take the front. Face S Company pals any objections or ideas? Authorizing emergency diverting or halting actions by company or upper edit: ah snap!

I wonder if that contact in the south is the american group, as the icon looks a lot like a Bradley in the manual. Maybe sound contacts aren't that decisive in their identification procedure. "Ah yes comrade, you hear that certain rattling of the forward left key chain hook, the splish splash dripping of laser pointer lighter fluid in the holding tank and that distinct leaf rustling beneath the semi-spaced full armored QuickSnap™© tank treads - this certainly must be the new M7A3 Bradley APS variant!"

Move 3/1/1 into BTR1. BTR1 with 3/1/1 move along red line, at location dismount 3/1/1 and move them into the woods. Face S Move 3/1/2 into BTR2.

Load ATGM into BTR3, follow cyan. ------------ The units probably won't get there in the next 5 minutes, but theoretically speaking, how unwise would it be to set up an Batallion ATGM team in the wooded spot on Mt. Silver?  Should I rather set it up in the back near the highway? What is the status of our anti air teams? Should we move some forward to this increasing concentration of our forces, and would that even help? The range seems infinite but they would be closer with shorter missile flight durations. Maybe someone knows.

 Grey dotted lines - confirmed contacts Magenta dotted line - mirror Pewter City - Viridian City Yellow outline, blue filled box - Ukrainian contacts Blue outline, white filled box - American contacts Pewter City and Viridian City are mirror matches, both defended by tanks and ATGMs. Now they move their tanks to the west. The eastern part of the map, along Route 23, seems to be of no further interest to the enemy, which fits the greater circumstances of the map. The grey lines are "they know we know they know" contacts - contacts they shot at and know we can react to. They probably have a vague idea what is there and that there's more to expect. It seems plausible they know about our solid defense in Viridian City and assessed it rightfully not to attack frontally. The ongoing eastern attack on Mount Silver is blunted so far by bad LoS - whether it is a flanking maneuver to help a southern attack or a spotting maneuver for the helicopter and artillery we have to wait and see. The southern encroachment on Mount Silver was succesful so far. They were able to bring their best infantry to play and establish solid positions in the woodlines. Their deployment of infantry might suggest they are here to stay, either offensively or in defense, at least for a while. We have new contacts in the southwest bend of Ravaged Path, again ukrainian forces. The contact not being a single vehicle might suggest this is not a scouting team but rather a screen against attacks on their southern encroachment base. I'm not sure where all their tanks are going or where they can be of any use, except for overwatch over established positions, but I think it's worrying we don't know where they are headed. If they are behind the southern bend as Yooper points out, Mounty Pyre might be their next vector of attack, yet I have no idea how this fits in with their eastern attack.

 I fear for a potential concentrated push of US infantry to dislodge me from my position on the Mt. Silver western side where I don't have the luxury of heavy BTR usage. There is a great HMG I found lying somewhere on the road which I want to help my Assault teams on the reverse slope to fend off the enemy attack (blue arrows) (they are everywhere!). I want the HMG to potential area fire or direct fire at the crest (solid orange line) and the pass east (double solid orange line) from around the counterslope area (dotted orange line). Is there any position for this endeavour or are the trees too dense for this? Any ideas where else to put the HMG?

^ That's not what I meant by that, please use these BTRs for their full effect in the east where they can help. Great dodge by the way! I don't think I could get BTRs that far into the woods without them getting stuck, or I rather want them to be more on the mobile side and of position to help around the map and not just a fixed locale.

I think this is partly due to the font used. I think I have the western middle one figured out with guesswork and thinking on what characters could become what. первинний вихід means primary exit; double checking with the crossroads gave me the p вторинний вихід means secondary exit; here the "т" or M as I first saw it, I just could not decipher it, but after I found "primary" this was the next logical guess. третинний вихід means tertiary exit, this is in the upper right. On the crossroads there is первинна мета - primary goal. підтримувати відиритий support open(?) т??х to Krolevets keep support open to Krolevets?

I agree, this handwriting is pretty bad. edit: But this implicates they can just gently caress off on the lower exit if we're too dug in on their primary exit, and they don't even have to bother with the main road we're blocking, or am I reading this wrong?

Going by this recent dossier, we can assume they really just want to secure the exits and NOT attack our holdings, especially the town, unnecessarily. This is in accordance to the preface of this whole mission, where they try not to be cut off from the rest of the country. Their priority, secure the highway, if that is not possible, secure the small road south of the highway, if that is not possible, secure the map via the road in the NE (aka lose the game). At least that is what makes sense to me. 3./1.
