If there are spots left, I'd gladly take command of a brigade pour la patrie.

Well chaps, looks like you're in a spot of bother. Let's see what the B.E.F. can do about that. The BEF 2nd Brigade enters the map here in marching formation.  It will immediately divert West directly towards Quatreprouts.  When the town of Graisse is in sight, the 2nd will assume the following battle Formation:  During the advance on Quatreprouts, if any Germans are sighted in the area between Graisse and Quatreprouts (including within the town of Quatreprouts itself) the 2nd's infantry companies will immediately advance upon them in a bayonet charge until the enemy are routed or destroyed. During this time, the brigade's artillery asset will move into range of the enemy and begin unlimbering. Once un-limbered, they will fire until there is nothing left to fire at. The brigade's machinegun company will be deployed, base to base, left of the artillery asset for defensive purposes. At the same time, the brigade's engineering will create a barbed wire barricade between the artillery + machine gun assets and the enemy. Brigade command will take up a position behind the artillery. Once the bayonet charge is inevitably succcesful at driving off the cowardly Hun, the artillery will re-limber and the brigade will resume it's original march on Quatreprouts, taking and securing the town. When the town of Quatreprouts is secure, the 2nd will assume the best approximation of the following battle formation, oriented north towards La Oeuf.  It will then advance on La Oeuf, once again bayonet charging any German assets between themselves and the objective. When engaging the enemy the artillery, machine gun, and engineering assets will repeat their orders re: unlimbering + firing and defensive machinegun and barbed wire placement. When the enemy has been driven off the ridge, the 2nd brigade will take up the following reverse slope defensive position on La Oeuf.  When sighting an enemy on Attack stance: Turn and move directly towards enemy When attacking the enemy: Launch a Bayonet Charge When an enemy company Breaks Off or Retreats Suppressed: Do not pursue Break Off automatically when: 2/3 casualties are taken Now then, let's give the Hun a thrashing shall we? (Note: this is my first set of orders incorporating artillery. Feel free to notify me if something is off.)

(Reformatting this post to make it more readable - blame the fresh out of school translator who has never actually spoken French out loud until today) Second draft of orders for the B.E.F Second Brigade The 2nd Brigade enters the map here in marching formation.  It will immediately orient itself West towards Quatreprouts, take the following battle formation, and then advance on Quatreprouts using the following vector.  During the advance on Quatreprouts, if any Germans are sighted in the area between Graisse and Quatreprouts (including within the town of Quatreprouts itself) the 2nd's infantry companies will immediately advance upon them in a bayonet charge until the enemy are routed or destroyed. During this time, the brigade's artillery asset will move into range of the enemy and begin unlimbering. Once un-limbered, they will fire until there is nothing left to fire at. The brigade's machinegun company will be deployed, base to base, left of the artillery asset for defensive purposes. At the same time, the brigade's engineering will create a barbed wire barricade between the artillery + machine gun assets and the enemy. Brigade command will take up a position behind the artillery. Once the bayonet charge is inevitably successful at driving off the cowardly Hun, the artillery will re-limber and the brigade will resume it's original march on Quatreprouts, taking and securing the town. When the town of Quatreprouts is secure, the 2nd will assume the best approximation of the following battle formation, oriented north towards La Oeuf. It will then advance on La Oeuf, once again bayonet charging any German assets between themselves and the objective. When engaging the enemy the artillery, machine gun, and engineering assets will repeat their orders re: unlimbering + firing and defensive machinegun and barbed wire placement. When the enemy has been driven off the ridge, the 2nd brigade will take up the following reverse slope defensive position on La Oeuf. Standing orders before Quatreprouts has been taken: When sighting an enemy on Attack stance: Continue towards original objective When attacking the enemy: Launch a Bayonet Charge When an enemy company Breaks Off or Retreats Suppressed: Do not pursue Break Off automatically when: Fight to the last man Adjustments to standing orders AFTER Quatreprouts has been taken: When sighting an enemy on Attack stance: Turn to face the enemy When an enemy company Breaks Off or Retreats Suppressed: Pursue the enemy Hephasto fucked around with this message at 12:29 on Feb 25, 2017 |

The 2nd Brigade will immediately charge on Quatreprouts, bayonetting or routing any Germans in the town and surrounding environs. During this time, the artillery will remain in position and take what shots they can. *IF these orders are received on the first turn, the 2nd Brigade companies on top of La Oeuf are to attempt to form the default battle formation as best they can before advancing.  With Quatreprouts taken, the 2nd Brigade will form up in the default battle formation as best it can and advance upon the marked crossroads north of Toiletteschamps and south of Fraisechamps, with a slight easterly detour to rendez-vous with the artillery. When the infantry and artillery are reunited, the artillery will re-limber. Once the artillery is mobile again, the whole brigade will advance on the crossroads. At the crossroads, the 2nd Brigade will take defensive positions, the artillery will unlimber, and the brigade will wait until dawn for further orders.  Standing orders BEFORE Quatreprouts is taken: When sighting an enemy on Attack stance: Continue towards original objective When attacking the enemy: Launch a Bayonet Charge When an enemy company Breaks Off or Retreats Suppressed: Do not pursue Break Off automatically when: Fight to the last man Adjustment to standing orders AFTER Quatreprouts is taken: When attacking the enemy: Use rifle fire Hephasto fucked around with this message at 04:06 on Mar 2, 2017 |

Addendum: while the 2nd brigade's infantry companies are assaulting Quatreprouts, the brigade's artillery will re-limber, move west to bring them in range of Quatreprouts, un-limber, and begin firing on any visible German targets.
