Brett & Vince's C&C Kings Officers 1940-41 Campaign Diary

[Brett Nicholson]

The battle is just about to begin at this point and have been very lucky with my 25-pdrs and mortars not getting wiped out after 4 turns or taking any losses yet. There are a lot of possibilties with this one but clearing that northern hill of Italian units within three hexes of the road will be quite a task. Being down 23 CPs I have to at least try for it rather than just trying to hold on to the one hill and most likely clearing the smaller one. If the Italian lead in the campaign was about ten points less then I would most likely give up on taking all three hills but this is a campaign so both of us have to strive to get every VP we can. Hopefully the initiative advantage for the British will pay off for my sake; at least so I can get some results with my on-board artillery while they are in good order!
