2nd and 3rd Platoon Orders

Sorry men, I got stuck in the rubble for a bit there and couldn't get out.

It seems Lt Centurium has gone AWOL so I will be giving orders for 2nd Platoon.

Right the situation:

It appears the bulk of the OpFor is mounting an assault on Chicken via the Celery Victory woods. Mortar strikes have been called in to suppress them. We have 0 contacts up here at Nicissoise.

As such Commander Bunny has ordered us to push downhill and flank the attacking forces in a pincer movement.

Orders to platoons:

2nd Platoon (or which ever one of us is on the north side of the road at the moment) you are to MOVE with combat spacing to avoid easy suppression down hill on the North side of the road, through the scrub and Tabouleh if required in order to get a flank on the enemy. When you boys hit the cover begin to HUNT as to engage any foolish enemies attempting to cross the road with no cover.

I am aware there is an Armoured Car there, I am ordering the AT Rifle to set up on the hill where it has an angle and try to pop it for you. The HMG and 3rd platoon's LMG are to do the same please. If the car goes down quick the MG's are to help suppress men in the open.


3rd Platoon: The squad in the train station is to stay where it is and hold that objective. The other 3 squads are to position as appropriate to advance down hill towards and through Mixed Greens wood to prepare to flank the enemy. HQ will obviously follow to maintain command cohesion, not concerned about the train station squad not being in command range because if this goes pear-shaped we're likely dead with or without their support.

Mister Spotter if you could please try to get a good position to call in the next strike.

I have doodled a map up for us quick boys:

Alright lads we're stuck in now. Hopefully our mortars made the bastards in CELERY VICTOR keep their heads down. Problem is we got some more at CAPRESE and HAM. I want mortars on those fucks too. If our forward spotter can see, I want our big boys dropping on that location. If not, make CELERY VICTOR really wish they hadn't been born.

I want our AC to creep forward slowly, see if we can spot what's in the crossroad and ham.

1st, hold the line boys. We survive this and I am buying every man of the platoon a beer.

2nd keep moving up and hit them in the flank.

3rd. Hold the factory with one or two squads and have the rest move up.

AT guns, we need that AC of theirs dead soon.

HMG keep shooting
AT Rifle continue movement to get a shot on that AC. React as appropriate if the AC moves and a new position needs to be taken to get LOS.
Spotter: begin calling in the fire missions as soon as you can see. Follow command's priorities for fire.
Commander head for the edge of coleslaw towards mixed green while staying concealed. We may wish to move that way to help provide leadership soon.

Church side

Mortars: when you stop chewing on the grass, shoot something! Again, follow command's priorities for fire. If you can't reach any of them, just shoot to cause the most casualties you can.
HMG: if it happens to start taking commands again, have it head towards the best possible spot to recover morale.
AT Rifle: keep edging towards a shot on that AC. Don't run out of the forest to take it, we need you alive to restrict the AC's movement, but otherwise take the opportunity if you get it.

2nd Plt


Blue means advance, red means move to contact (however CM2 names that) green means run.

At the turn break, if that AC is still moving and is about to mess us up, please cancel these orders and run to the nearest cover and start fighting.

Otherwise, start putting rounds in the backs of that advance at mixed green once you reach final positions. If that isn't possible, you may reposition them so as to accomplish that goal.

EDIT: Um, this is missing a line. Please take that fourth squad and move them along to the near edge of the far forest, or anywhere else that makes sense.

HQ Assets
Continue previous orders

except

HMG between mixed green and caesar is to sit down and try to calm down. You have discretion to give them target arc orders as best fits enemy positions.

Sorry for late orders, I got caught up in something last night. Hopefully nothing too complicated here, though.

1st Platoon

I've lost track of which squads are which, so I'm going to refer to them loosely here. In general, we need to prioritize putting fire on that stack of dudes coming up on our left flank, getting mortar rounds out before the enemy are in very close contact, and maintaining morale.

Ambush guys in the woods left of the church
Hold the line. Prioritize targeting infantry.

Dudes in the church
Same orders as before. If you can shrek that AC on the road without leaving cover, do so.

Mortars
Fire at whatever you can hit without having to reposition.

Yep.

2 platoon
Continue previous orders. Once in position start shooting. Feel free to jostle around to achieve LOS.

HQ Assets

HMG recovering by mixed green: Start moving north into mixed green proper. Goal is to get to the corner of mixed green and set up once 2plt has the Hungarians' attention.

HMG in Coleslaw: feel free to reposition if you determine LOS isn't useful anymore. That's an adaptive call based on the enemy, but I suggest either moving to the train station upper floors to gain LOS or to pick up and join 3 platoon in moving into mixed green. If you do reposition to mixed green, take the HQ as well, and the AT rifle if his LOS isn't going to be relevant anymore.

Spoilers: nothing unexpected happens. Their platoons continue to close up on the church, no friendly casualties are taken. Their AC takes 2(3?) penetrating hits from the AT rifle and takes no appreciable damage as a result. It moves to a point where the AT rifle can't see it because terrain is blocky. The HMG and 2 mortars around the church are coming back under control just at a point where they are going to be able to stall the enemy advance opposite them. Our 2nd and 3rd platoons continue to deploy.

Fire into the pink circle if you have LOS, yellow circle if you don't. Use whatever fire command is most likely to see rounds on target in the shortest time frame. Feel free to adjust within those circles to best address available targets for maximum effect.

HQ assets:

Continue previous orders. Should be finished setting up/ sneaking over a hill this turn. Reposition as needed to keep fire on the enemy.

HQ squad- move down the hill behind the forests to go give some command support to that hmg. They'll need it, I think. Try not to get caught out travelling in a position where 3 platoon can't help you.

AT gun on the hill: run after 3rd platoon. I doubt the enemy AC is headed back our way. If he does, try to be close enough to the forest edge to stop and shoot within a turn. Otherwise keep to 3rd platoons movements.

2 Platoon:

Continue to shoot. You should finish movement soon. If contact breaks keep moving up in a 2 moving 2 overwatching formation. (As best you can in this engine, anyway). If that squad in the edge of the woods doesn't break by the time everyone has finished moving, once the 2 farther squads have it under fire the nearest 2 squads are to close to grenade range and assault them.

EDIT: ultimate goal of advance is Celery Victor. Put fire on the enemy in mixed green as you can from overwatch, but prioritize clearing resistance towards celery Victor.

Centurium
Aug 17, 2009
2 Platoon

Immediate goal is to suppress the enemy in mixed green so that HMG can start to shift the balance of fires.

As you are able, start shifting squads towards the edge of the forest to get LOS on the church approach. Ideally we'd be able to shift at least some fire onto a final charge out of the enemy. Keeping the HMG free to fire is still priority one, however. It is a far better weapon to stop a charge.

If the HMG dies shifting to that position becomes first priority. We'll be the only thing able to put fire on the church area for some time, and the enemy must not be allowed to cross into the church uncontested.

HQ assets:

HMG in rail station: keep giving em hell.

HQ and at rifle: continue orders. Shoot if ya get the chance.

HMG in South Mixed Green: shift fire to the enemy in north mixed green that keeps suppressing you. Only shift back once they are suppressed and unlikely to silence you. If the big charge comes, stopping that supercedes any other priority.

Spoilers (don't read till you've watched all the vids): I think that's probably game. Flank threats have been swept up, the two HMGs are beating across their lines and spraying everything in sight, and the reserve platoon is doing a rendition of 'cool guys don't look at explosions'. I think the last choice is whether you want to use the final turn to settle down and play safe, or go for the flourish and see if you can sweep up that enemy platoon that's now isolated and vulnerable).
