Trench game practice

[martin goddard]

14th September. We tried out a trench game.

Some tactical thoughts.
Defender should maximise his number of MGs. They only die on a 1 so are pretty useful.
Attacker should use a suppression barrage to isolate potential target squares. Gas could do the same thing.
Attacker should consider breaking through at weaker points in order to go around the back or side of objectives.
Attacker  should use the attack order Higher command so that the extra +2 can be had in an assault.

Don't go telling the Germans all this, Martin! 

I note that Defender top tips are somewhat outnumbered by those for the Atacker...
