"Operation Chokehold, Batrep #3" Topic

All,

It's 0830 on 29 June 1990 and Battlegroup Caballero has just crossed the line of departure, moving into the attack on TF Galban's second objective, the town of Premja.

North is up, the village of Brezno is at bottom right, the capital of Miran is off map to the right, directly east of #5 on the map. Each number is a village/town; you can see buildings (black boxes), roads (tan lines), rivers (blue lines), lakes (blue circles), hills (green humps), bridges (gray pairs of lines), and forests (green shaded areas). TF Galban will enter the tactical area of operations in the southwest (bottom left) corner.
1: Brezno
2: Kacak
3: Premja

Overview, north is up. The town of Premja is at center right, part of Lake Bulodna at bottom right, and Hill 103 at top left. Battlegroup Caballero will enter from the southwest (bottom left).

The bad guys spring their ambush, firing an RPG at the Cuban Scimitar. To see how the fight went, please check the blog at:

Well, fight number 3 of 4 from this weekend is in the books, one more to post, then more games this weekend.

That was quite rough!

I can definitely empathize with that feeling where you see a small chance or opportunity and figure "if only this bit works, the entire battle is saved!".

Usually doesn't turn out that way :-)

Ivan,

No easy days here, apparently. I've run across the 'last ditch' situation quite a few times in my gaming (a benefit of playing lots of games), and it's broken my way about 60% of the time.

I'd rather be lucky than good ;)

V/R,
Jack
