A Strong Response - DAR

[Ratzki]

It is turn 6, and it would seem that the Russians are comming straight at my men. I thought this to be too obvious, but it would seem this is his plan. If Russian squads keep appearing at this rate I will be overrun. There is a very large gap in my line between this platoon at the right flag and my main body of men just to the left of this screenshot. It most probably is wide enough to sqeeze enemy troops through without too much of a problem and without my detection. I decide to start to pull my guys here back and into this gap before I get caught with my pants down. I do manage to ambush a squad here and there one at a time but he has enough squads to have some hang back and single my men out one by one. A good move on his part.
I am not in trouble here by no means but I have to get out now, or all that will happen is the Russians will hang back move up more men, outnumber me, and eliminate me one at a time. This seems to be the plan of the enemy at the moment. Maybe though I have started him to thinking that he should be carefull and this will start the time ticking away. All I can do is hope at the moment.

In the centre of the map is the same story. A general advance on a wide front with other Russian squads firing at any of my men that are located. Again, I manage to ambush some Russian squads, but here I could be even more trouble as his light tanks seem to be moving this side of the map. I have no way to really counter this threat other then my AT Rifles. I have checked them out, I do stand a chance at taking out some different Russian tanks, I wonder what he has. If he gets into a good position he will be able to fire away with his tanks and squads at my men. Poor setup by me. I like to be a little deeper into the trees, but I really thought that the Russians would come fromway over near my single platoon. I do see one squad over there now, but that is it. My plan was to shoot at range across the fields at targets as they tried to cross the open ground. This way I would have flank shots with my squads and head on shots with my machine guns.
