Attacking

[Ratzki]

Yes herroberst, you have to have an overwatch unit(s) of some sort so you have a chance when the enemy shows himself. You can't just plan on getting to a location, but you have to make sure that you get there in good order and in a timely way. If not, the few troops that make it are just pushed out and back where they came from too easily. If a location is worth moving to then it is worth killing and being killed for, otherwise you are going to waste resources for nothing. Within a QB it is tough to have enough units to go around, but an advance should have a moving unit, an overwatch unit, a flanking unit, and a reserve. This can be a single platoon too, one 1/2 squad moves and draws fire going pinned. An overwatch MG or squad returns fire and reduces the incomming fire on your unit. Another squad quickly gets into a flanking position and advances or fires on the enemy. The reserve squad is used or not depending on how the firefight goes.
