Catching the Rat ( Remote - Office Demo )
A German patrol has been sent to capture a local bandit chief in a nearby village. It is early as the Germans advance.
The men are silent and await the advance signal from their leader.
Quietly the advance signal is given.
The village remains quiet.
But not for long! Suddenly a dog barks and a lone sentry appears just as the advancing squads near the village walls.
Much shouting and the sentry firing bring more enemy from their slumber!
The squad in over watch takes careful aim and with the scattered fire of the skirmishers clears the roof tops! The first
squad leader advances his unengaged men up to the wall where they will have better protection if there is more enemy.
As the skirmishers close up with their squad more enemy pour from the buildings and fire into the huddle mass of
men behind the stone wall! The squad leader is hit and a lone man panics - but only goes a short distance to halt.
The covering squads in the open continue to pour fire at the attackers but their crawling advance effects their aim.
The men take aim the best they can but cannot seem to dislodge the enemy as easily as they did the first time!
The men held in resevre sense that a critical moment nears ass they prepare to charge the village walls!
The fireing at the wall is hot but neither side appears to make any head way.
The enemy move towards the flanks of the huddling men - rifles are raised by both sides.
The situation looks deserate! The squad cannot seem to get over the wall without risking all!
The enemy can see the whole of their opposing force and do not flee!
How much longer can the stalemate last?
Will the men at the wall hold? Will the advancing men in the open add momentum to the attack? How many enemy are
left inside the village? And where is the enemy chieftain that the Germans have come to seize?
Natives - Minor Victory - WINNER!
Germans - Minor Defeat
