A Raesharn battalion-sized battlegroup commanded by General Kohl ready to advance and take, seize or carry the village of Lahtidoh, a road nexus needed for the final assault upon the Kiivar city of Kavi.
That there was no covering for the tabletop was due to the keys to the Club terrain room going walkabout. Most of the terrain you see is mine, except for the village buildings, which are Jono's.
Looking east across the the Kiivar battle lines and no man's land between the rival forces. Lahtidoh village, lying between the armies, was also deemed necessary to be taken to aid the Kiivar war effort.
A Raesharn armoured car discovers the hard way where the enemy armour is... A scratchbuild by Jono...
A Raesharn air strike takes out one of Kiivar's tanks...
... but retribution is swift! It's flight path takes it within range of a Kiivar twin barrelled AA cannon, which brings it down.
Kiivar armour takes up hull-down positions on 'Blue-Towel' Hill. Not that it did them any good. A war correspondence know for his inability to resist bold and bad headlines remarked at length upon the 'towelling' the Kiivar tanks received...
The action ended with all the armour destroyed but for one damaged Raesharn tank. Infantry casualties were surprisingly light (8 Raesharn and 11 Kiivar) but the former lost rather more equipment. The action, like many such now that the Raesharn's early onrush has been stemmed, ended in a standoff...
I like the scratch built vehicle - well done.
