Did you create this force of an oob own? Why not find the rifle sections that support the mortar platoon. Nor is a section of engineers. I have only to choose options platoons as smaller units. Do you understand?
Regards

This is a modified TO&E I have created from real data...

It represents, in my opinion, a fraction of a soviet battalion in 1948.

The riffle section you see (Mortar/Artillery platoon) represent their HQ and... defence.

With these forces, the battle lasts about 50 turns of 90; can you imagine with more!

The organizational structure will change a little bitin 1954...

***

So... here is my new TO&E (1949/01):

HQ :
HQ - 1X GAZ JEEP,
1X Riffle section - 1X GAZ-66;

RECCE platoon :
5X Scout team (RPG-2) - 5X White scout car;

Engineer platoon:
1X PT-34,
1X T-34 BTU,
1X Engineer - 1X GAZ-66;

Motorized infantry company:
4X SMG section - 6X Riffle section (4X RPG-2/2X Sniper) - 3X RPG-2 team - 10X GAZ-66,
3X 7.62 SMG MMG - 1X GAZ-66;

Tank platoon:
4X IS-3;

Support platoon:
3X 82mm mortar - 1X GAZ-66,
3X 85mm D-44 AT gun - 3X GAZ-66;

Mortar platoon:
1X Riffle section - 1X GAZ-66,
1X Art observer - 1X GAZ JEEP,
3X 82mm mortar - 1X GAZ-66,
3X 120mm Mortar - 3X GAZ-66;

Artillery platoon:
1X Riffle section - 1X GAZ-66,
1X Art observer - 1X GAZ OP JEEP,
3X 122mm M-30 FH - 3X GAZ-66;

Ammo section:
2X Ammo container - 2X GAZ-66;

Anti-Air platoon:

Hi,

Location: Bad Homburg;
Date: 1948/06;
Enemy: USA;
Mission: Meeting;
Visibility: 10;
Turns: 90;

Map of battlefield:


Soviet task force:


The terrain is difficult.

There is only one east-west axis.

Soviet forces will have no choice to use it. Bridges are our goal.

6X82mm mortars will create a smoke screen east of the 1st bridge.

3X76mm FG + 3X120mm mortars will bombard the hill next to the 1st bridge.

2/3 of the RECCE platoon will open the way followed by T-34/85s and 2 MOT INF platoons and 3 AA units.

FOs will take positions on hills in the north and south.

Here we go!

Thank you,

Hi,

FIRST CONTACT! Turn 6.



The Americans crossed the second bridge.

2 M-46 appear on the road. The PT-34 shoot but miss. An M-46 create a smoke screen.

The PT-34 go back and other T-34 take defensive position.

M-46 is superior to the T-34/85, I'm little bit nervous...

Our 82mm mortars started firing around the bridge.

Our 76mm FG and 120mm mortars still firing.

Thank you,

Hi,

Turn 6-7:

Many american tanks (M46 and M24) appear in front of our T-34/85; they are easily destroyed...

Some american 81mm motars start firing the rear of our columm.

We spot the smoke and put our 152mm D-1 on them.

Turn 8:



Surprise! More tanks (M4A3E8) from the south. Our FO must retreat.

Turn 8-14:



Few tanks (mostly M26) try to force the way again from west without success.

Soviet forces push foward: unfortunatly a dammaged M26 hit a T-34/85!

The tank of Ml. Serzh. Bezugliy explode... no survivor.

Our infantry reach our tanks and take defensive position; some american soldiers are coming.

American mortars fire less. Our CB work well.

Thank you!

Keep it up. Im 4 battles into a similar campaign, though I started in 46.

[Oche]

I like to read this too, good job.

[Paderborn]

I'm enjoying your campaign though I'm surprised with the easy destruction of the M-46 tanks by the T-34/85 tanks. I look forward to following the rest of the campaign. Thanks!

Hi,

Thank you Runequester and Oche!

Turn 15-20:

We find 2 more M26 during our advance.

Hopefully, because they are on harsh terrain, they cant fire and soon, they are destroyed.

Our 82mm mortar start firing US infantry along the river

Their 60mm mortar start firing too.

Soviet infantry take few casulties.

Soviet forces keep their position and reinforcement from the back (1 mot inf platoon) are arriving.

American lost a lot of men and equipent, I'm confident...

Soon the front will broke, I'm sure...



Thank you,

Hi,

Turn 21-35:

OH!? ... bad surprise... but they seem stuck...



The fight is hard, american soldiers show determination.

We lost 3 T-34/85:

Major Baturin; hopfully 3 crewman survived.

Ml. Serzh. Zaborniy, Leiten. Lisin and their crews, unfortunatly died.

AT weapons of US soldiers did a better work than tanks...

Finally, after a lot of american, and soviet casulties, we crossed the bridge.

Soviet are regrouping and preparing for the next operation step.



Thank you,
