Seoul 1985 Pt10 Jackhammer

This post brings us up to date on the slogfest that is the Battle of Seoul 1985. Above NK Armour with Infantry support start to push into the Regular ROK Infantry positions. Good to see Al using his armour alongside his Infantry giving mutual support, something that he has been punished for not doing in previous games.
Just for Tim, some M551 Sheridan porn. This Unit despite an early loss of a Platoon really has started to make inroads into the game, by skirting around the flanks and generally extending the NK forces, without firing much ammunition.
Reserve "Homeland" force ROK Infantry consolidate their gains after pushing a force 3 times their size out of the Built up area behind US Airborne Units. Their lack of heavy weapons and urky morale was made up for by some nice dice rolls. I was lucky here and m not afraid to admit it.
Meanwhile on the other Flank the cut off Charlie Company of the Regular ROK Infantry struggle to repel the red masses from inside the Bank of South Korea. The eland of these fearless continues to be a thorn in Al's master plan which suits me just fine.
Motivated NK Infantry move towards the US/ROK line. I pity their eagerness, yet am impressed by the good order they show going to there fate. These are Al's figures here.
NK Anti Aircraft Support stands, the 12.7mm DShK gun is by Orion and is particularly fiddly to piece together. The Red advance seems to have gained some momentum.

  7. Hi Nick, It is a Superquick card church. You can usually find them on Trademe under Railway Buildings and Landscape easily enough.

    Hope that helps.

  14. Hi Geordie, we have agreed on an outcome of sorts as time is short and we do not have much time to really devote to it.

    Cheers Paul
