End of turn 3.
Turn opened with the arrival of a flight of WG Alpha Jets. Bu they were forced to break off and come around again do to SAM fire from a Tunguska platoon.
All WG units received two activations and the 2/51st PzGren Co. entered the area from the north. A Juguar-2 platoon from the 1/51st PzGren Co. scored an ATGM kill on the BRDM-2 scouts of 1/45th GTR.
The 1/3 50th Territorials suffered heavily under the relentless fire of the massed T-80 of 1/45th GTR. Their remaining infantry platoon can been seen in the first picture in their improved positions on the edge of the hill.
Have they delayed the Russians enough? Hard to tell....
The 1/45th GTR received 2 activations and made good time in advancing, and mauling the WG Territorials.
The 2/45th GTR and 4/45th GTR finally enter the area and set off on their designated routes.
