It's part of my sorry duty to replay the Advanced Tutorial incorporating all the changes made since we originally designed it six months ago. It's a tough job but someone's got to do it.[;)]
It's the morning of Day 3 and the Allied counter offensive is just starting to bite hard. For two days the valiant 19th Australian Inf Bde have been fighting a hold and delay operation against superior German panzer and infantry forces. The German 33rd Pz Regt came perilously close to seizing its objective - the Yef Alamanas crossing of the Sperkhios River in Greece.
Unfortunately for them the jig is up. The 2/8th Inf Bn of the 19 Bde was relieved late on Day 2 when the 1st UK Arm Bde stormed across the Komma bridge in the north-west. This enabled me to shuffle across the 16th Bde in the early evening and launch a dawn attack south east into Anthilli. This has just booted the 33rd Pz Regt HQ out of the town and they have decided to call off their attack and run back to Lamia in the north.
But I have committed the 4th Hussars Lt Tank Regt to seize the Eastern Marshes and cut off their escape route. In the meantime I ordered the 17th Bde to cross over at Komma and launch a major assault on Lamia.
Oh the joy of a well executed plan.[:)]
