Unless there are alternate motives, and I will check for you, but as far as I know you can’t fire a Faust or a shrek out of a building


Got it. Don't want to fire from those positions. Just first move to...

Turns out you now can fire from within buildings if and when the needs arise

If they can get that far this round, move HMG Team 1 in Black E 75 to Red F 58.

Ok chaps - will post the orders this weekend and take some pics and update the locations for the next round of orders

Slim pickings from the commanders - I will move the unordered guys and hopefully more will jump on as the action hots up

Barthheart's tank hunters head off to the farmhouse in the east



and Martok's HMG team follow



thecommandtent's recon halftrack almost makes the junction in the 60 seconds



The rest of the unmanaged bods are the infantry squads from 1st and 3rd platoon, Platton HQ and the StuG - the infantry run forward to the hedge



HQ takes cover at the back of the pack



and the StuG heads east to try and get sights on anything coming up the right of the map



After the 60 seconds there are no enemy contacts anywhere

So, im looking for orders again - even if you want your previous commanded pixeltruppen to carry on with their last orders just drop them below, so Barthheart could say leave the shreks to continuue, or can divert them now theyre under way

Pz Division Escort Company HQ currently in Black L69
1st Platoon HQ currently in Black F69
1st Squad in Black G62
2nd Squad in Black I62
3rd Squad in Black K62
1st Panzershrek Team in Black J70
2nd Panzershrek Team in BlackJ71
3rd Panzershrek Team in Black J72
HMG Section HQ in Black L70
HMG Team 1 in Black O67
STUG in Red D69
Recon Halftrack Black N53

3rd Platoon HQ Black O65
1st Squad Black A63
2nd Squad Black C62
3rd Squad Black E62
Panzershrek Team 1 Black V69
Panzershrek Team 2 Black U69
Panzershrek Team 3 Black T69

Good luck fellas

Keep the tank hunter teams on course... if they can still breath after the StUG stirred up all that dust!

Olympic prowess and stubborn drivers abound in the second turn.......

3rd platoon occupy the farm buildings in front of them to take the first VP location, 3rd squad enter the main house



2nd squad take cover behind the outbuilding, and first squad enter the woodlands behind the farm



1st squad, 1st platoon run upto the crossroads and cover the halftrack



and 2nd squad cross the road and cover from their side - the driver of the halftrack for reasons unknown completely ignores his orders and has a cigarette while the action unfolds



The AT teams finally make the big house and take position, not a man out of breath!



whilst the HMG team jogs past, also unaffected by the sprint but they still have a little way to go



and the tank heads to a bend in the road that should give it a view of the enemy set up area



A birds eye view of our end of the map



and the grid



Orders then for the following -

Pz Division Escort Company HQ currently in Black L69
1st Platoon HQ currently in Black K62
1st Squad in Black K53
2nd Squad in Black M55
3rd Squad in Black O53
1st Panzershrek Team in Black K62
2nd Panzershrek Team in Black L61
3rd Panzershrek Team in Black M60
HMG Section HQ in Black Q67
HMG Team 1 in Red E59
STUG in Red Q52
Recon Halftrack Black N52

3rd Platoon HQ Black O65
1st Squad Black E59
2nd Squad Black B55
3rd Squad Black H56
Panzershrek Team 1 Black K62
Panzershrek Team 2 Black L61
Panzershrek Team 3 Black M60

If you so desire you can adopt another unit or 2, i dont mind, but i dont want to get the tank blown up and have no one else to blame!

Three or four I think - it died a swift death
