Night Attack
Outer Defense Zone

The Argentineans dug in on Mount Harriet expected the British to attack from the west. However, Colonel Vaux's patrols had found a path through the minefields and discovered that the southern approaches to the hill were lightly defended.

On June 11th, Vaux sent Companies L and K on the circuitous path to the southeast. The troops arrived at their jumping-off positions undetected. K Company, on the right, would start the assault into the rear of the Argentinean position.

Note: This scenario has a visibility of five hexes to represent the constant illumination of the hilltop by British artillery and mortars. Consequently, the number of illumination rounds has been decreased and randomized for the Argentines.
