BATTLE OF BALIMONT
The Roscian army saw action for the first
time at the Battle of Balimont on 13 June 2009 where they repulsed overwhelming
Centralian forces in a fierce 6 hour battle. Reporters have been unable to
confirm
reports that dozens of enemy tanks were destroyed and several
enemy aircraft shot down but the burnt out wrecks of 3 APC's were still there to
be seen. The Order of Rosc has been issued to the
Recoilless Rifle Platoon of
the 1st Balimont Rifles. Thanks to our intrepid war correspondent, Lawrence, for the
pictures of the battle. (click on them for a closer look (well for most
of them))
There they are!
The enemy! Hordes of Centralian tanks and infantry.
The attack goes in. The plain brown patches are marked minefields several of which were fakes.
The highwater mark of the Centralian attack at the end of Turn 8.
643 Attack Squadron almost finds the target. (seconds later the center of the Roscian position was shot up and an M4 Sherman platoon destroyed, 643 squadron claims it was due to a command blunder but the troops on the ground swear it was 643 squadron shooting at the only target they could find.)
.Another shot of the final turn. White caps are units that used opportunity fire or initiative, red are hits, yellow markers are suppression.
