12:00-13:00:
PLANNING -
A: Continue to fight the flankers.
The CA-1s should enjoin soon.
An LMG from the Riding School is moving to a position from which it can fire upon the SE tower.
B: The big guns - 6-inchers - are about ready to blow.
The two rifle platoons in the offices will move onto the wooded slope to maintain readiness as reserves.
C: The platoon on the esplanade will complete its rush into the wooded area.
Most of another platoon will break for the NE tower, uncomfortably close to the shooting.
A third platoon will finally make the charge on the NW tower, which appears to be undefended.
RESULTS -
A: The enemy squad is finally downed, but 2 more engineers go down. The squad is in tatters, having lost 9 of 12.
The CA-1s finally arrive and begin to lay down fire.
B: The platoons are coming across without much trouble.
C: The first platoon across is having problems, meeting resistance. Another enemy squad opens up on my MG that went with it (the platoon).
The second - demi - platoon got across fine.
The third platoon was apparently within LOS for the shooters on the north terrace. Some got into the structure, but a number are panicking on the pavement and refuse to do much besides. 8 of my men were felled here, the largest single loss of the game so far.
