Game is now set up, now hopefully I’ll be able to play and include battle report tomorrow.
Overall double-sized map in Valor & Victory, set up for an assault of a company of 12th Royal Irish Rivals, 108th Brigade, 36th Ulster Division - against hastily-prepared positions of 12th Bavarian Division, X Reserve Corps, Fourth Army in Courtrai, Belgium, 19 October 1918. Basically, the Irish have to assault south and take that large municipal building building at the bottom of themap that is forming the keystone of this German battalion's defense.
Four platoons of 12th Royal Irish RIfles, backed up by Vickers MG sections and 76mm Stokes mortars.
An understrength company of 12th Bavarian Division, X Corps, on defense. They have MG 08s, MG 08 15s (late war), minefields and barbed wire defenses to slow down assaults down the obvious approach routes.
