JTS/WDS Bulge 44 - Starter Scenario AAR Turn 4

-

Turn 4

In the north, the goal of the 2 German Regiments has shifted to keeping all the US troops engaged to hopefully allow the southern regiment to break through into the rear and the big VP hexes. Most US units are disrupted so the Germans assault/maneuver to try to isolate the US units. The Stug unit makes a run on the northern road for the rear VP hexes and the results of this dash will be in the next image.

The Stug unit slipped past the US lines and shifted to travel mode and was able to slip past the Art Bn then recon/identify the 150VP hex is occupied by a US Eng unit. Then it had enough movement left to occupy the 75VP hex where it stays. Let's see if this generates any US reaction.

In the south, the German forces continue to move aggressively around the US Broken unit running into 2 HQs and an Art Bn trying to block - looks like last-ditch forces. Since the Southern pincer is the one that will win or lose the game for the Germans, the Div HQ moves up closer to support it.

In the US move more surprises/added units appear. Deep in the Schnee Eifel, a US Inf Bn appears isolating the German Bn. In the south, another US Inf Bn appears threatening the Div HQ. And finally, one more US Inf Bn fortifies the village in the center road. Starting to feel outnumbered…

https://youtu.be/YucVqQS0qMY Bob and Mary started scanning and recording all the specimens. Carol focused on the numerous devices that appeared to be connected to many of the 'habitats.' It seemed they were providing power and possibly life support functions to the individual enclosures. Also, the space appeared to be filling with some sort of atmosphere although exact readings were ambiguous. Bob started using his neural scanner on some of the specimens. "They appear to be in some sort of stasis Captain," he reported. "Continue scanning and recording, also make sure you are sending your readings back to Sonny and the ship's computer." Bob replied, "aye, Skipper" and he and Mary began slowly moving along the edge of the space continuing their scanning. I wonder if this 'cube' is manned and has a crew Carol thought… Bob gave a gasp and then shifted his neural scanner to the opposite end of the space they were in. "Captain I am getti

"Refueling complete, all tanks full, all refueling equipment secured" Sonny reported. "Very well, proceeding to the High Guard position, prepare to retrieve the drone," Carol said. After the ship was close to the Drone Bob said "retrieval initiated." After a few minutes, he added, "retrieval complete, all systems secured for transit." Carol answered, " Very well, course confirmed for Kotori Prime, breaking orbit." The first few days of the transit were uneventful. The crew finished their equipment checks in preparation for the upcoming Planetary survey. In their remaining time, they continued work on the backlog items (inoperable drone, wrong software version) while also manning the sensors in shifts. Carol even carved out a few hours one night for the crew to enjoy a recent holo-movie together. The crew seems to be slowly coming together she thought, even Sonny seemed to be more like his old self again. One day out from Kotori Prime, t

CAPT Burnett arrives at the Scout Base before her crew to assume her command of the Intrepid and review the status of the ship. To Carol's surprise, the base commander is a relative from her home world who was on the other side of the controversy - so not a friend. CDR Carlin gives her an icy/strictly professional reception and she knows she will get no support from him. - Was this a coincidence or setup by others? Sonny arrives first and also gives her an icy response - and seems more withdrawn than usual. She had been told he was open to the assignment and had been told she was the Captain - now she wonders. - Was this a coincidence or setup by others? The rest of the crew arrives - Bob the Astrogator who was new to Carol, and Mary the Researcher who she had worked with some during the mission contacting the new alien species. Bob seemed solid and Mary was excited to be working w/Carol again. Before actually departing the basic spaceport, a Free Trader ship was seized and the
