A Sandbox

This battle that took place in Area 15 on the campaign map.. Success here would allow the Marines to strike into the rear areas on the map, needed for success in the campaign. I decided that the Americans would need to cross the board with their whole force to score a victory. The table set up had a number of compounds and trees that provided a lot of cover for an ambush force. I chose 3 random locations and then assigned the 3 on table Khemed units to them using a d6. They would start hidden until theyoved or fired.  I also used this Solo AI that I found online. Khemed forces would base their actions on this.  Below is the board. The US forces would need to travel the length of the road, heading north and exit off the board.  The D6s show where the Khemed forces would be hidden. The FAO was on the hill to the left.  US forces CO HQ FAC 2 Abrams 2 Abrams 3 infantry, 1 81mm mortar, 1 AAVP7 1 infantry, 1 truck Air support- AC130 Spooky Khemed forces CO HQ FAO 3 in

Full write up will come shortly. This small encounter saw a formidable force of 4 Abrams tanks plus some infantry needing to cross through an area covered in compounds and cover. Perfect ambush territory.  There were 3 Khemed units waiting, their hidden locations marked by the D6s, each unit was randomly assigned to the location. The Marines had some air support in the shape of a Spooky gunship orbiting above.
