A Quick Fight in the Mountains | ||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
This was a 2-session, online battle with the industrious and able, Tambu, leading the highly motivated, but outnumbered Ethiopian force of irregulars. I acted as the Italian Colonial Force mmander on what turned out to be a doomed mission. Both sides setup in close proximity and the fighting started immediately with the Duce's force seizing the initiative from the start. Initial firefights quickly led to several close assaults in which the Ethiopians basically clobbered the defending Italian stacks. The victory conditions for both sides are all about eliminating enemy steps and the Italians simply ran out of time and units while barely holding onto their encampment. As the step losses rapidly mounted for the Italians, my opponent wisely began to step back from the fighting, and did not get decisively engaged. Italian attempts at pursuit failed due to repeated disruptions & demoralizations, as well as the loss of the Italian initiative advantage. |
