LINE OF CONTACT
Two battlegroups, one front line. Take ground, keep your supply lines open, and decide every turn whether to spend your orders now or bank them for one decisive strike.
How to play
Objectives
At the end of every round each side scores 1 VP per objective it owns. First to the sector's VP target wins, or the leader when time runs out. A unit standing on the enemy HQ at round end wins outright.
Units
Select a unit, click a lit hex to move, click a marked enemy to fire. Moving then firing is fine; firing ends the unit's turn. Entering a hex next to a spotted enemy stops movement.
Fog of war
You see what your units can see. Woods, towns and rubble hide troops beyond 2 hexes (recon: 3). Hills extend sight and look over trees. Units that fire give away their position.
Logistics
Units within reach of your HQ or a held depot refill ammo and fuel each turn. Trucks refill neighbours beyond that. Units cut off run dry; infantry cut off for 3 turns start losing strength.
Orders
Each turn brigade offers three order cards. Hold at most 5. What you don't take is lost. You earn 2 CP a turn plus 1 per objective, banked up to 12.
Terrain
Barrages turn towns to rubble, woods to burnt ground and fields to craters. Bridges can be dropped. Engineers dig trenches, clear rubble and lay bridges.
