4th platoon, Stragglers

Deploy in the blue box, behind the high-priority troops such as vehicles, tanks or real infantry.
Deploy in a column north-south with 50 m between squads, 1st - 2nd - 3rd - 4th, with the HQ beside 4th squad.

At turn start, pause for 30 s to give the other fellas some room, then move along the blue line.
At the end of the line take up the positions marked with red in marching order, with 1st squad in the northernmost position.

Random thoughts/ideas:

The germans can't use their edge of the map to overwatch with their heavies and their visibility even into Foy itself is kinda limited.
Makes me think they'll either do a double envelopment of the village or a heavy push on the more open left side. They'll want to find positions where they can dominate the biggest possible piece of the map with their tanks.

To counteract this, we want to concentrate as many guns and minefields on the positions they're likely to seek for their tanks as possible. We probably can't stop them from eventually establishing good OW positions, but those can be temporarily blocked with smoke.

The AT guns can either be placed in Foy or in some treeline. My instinct would be to hide them in the village, in positions where they can be pivoted to fire on either flank and where they're protected from the front. Or maybe two in the treeline on our left and two in the village, depends on the exact distances and topography. All four guns must be able to fire on the same target if need be, concentration of fire is important!

The tracks should probably be hidden somewhere in the back and only come out when they have an opportunity to punish germans not covered by their big cats. Once again putting all four guns on the same target area is ideal.

Since we are on the back foot, I'd definetly use the air support and paratrooper reinforcement cards.

Keep up the suppressing fire until the assault teams start clearing the west part of the woods. Your secondary task from now until the clock runs out will be to clear the enemy to the west of you, let me know what you're thinking once you've made a plan. If the assault goes well you can expect to some of the other platoons to support you.

Something like this.



After clearing the known enemy positions, consolidate MGs(mortar in/around the black circle so they can fire into Joshua Tree.
