1 Cape Helles Landings ltbv
Cape Helles Landings - 25/04/1915
--------------------------------------------------------
Good evening, General! Welcome to our last meeting before the start of our operation - the greatest amphibious landing ever attempted!

While ANZAC will be landing further north at Ari Burnu, and French troops at Kum Kale, your 29th Division will be the spearhead here at Cape Helles.
Five landing sites have been selected in this area. The troops assigned to these beaches are as follows:
- 1/King's Own Scottish Borderers at "Y" Beach, supported by the Plymouth Battalion of the Royal Naval Division
- 2/Royal Fusiliers, 1/Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and 1/Border Regiment at "X" beach
- 1/Lancashire Fusiliers and 4/Worcestershire Regiment at "W" beach
- 1/Royal Munster Fusiliers, 1/Royal Dublin Fusiliers and 2/Hampshire Regiment at "V" beach
- 2/South Wales Borderers and a detachment of sailors from HMS Cornwallis at "S" beach

We are expecting Turkish resistance to be light, exept at "V" beach where our troops have the task to overwhelm the garrison of the Sedd-El-Bahr fortress. Once you have secured the beaches, we will land additional troops and artillery. The French 1st Division is on its way and will join your advance up the peninsula. It is essential that you seize your objectives as quickly as possible - before the Turks are able to send reinforcements.

Good luck, General! God save the King!
HQ: No activities. I tried to win with the existing core.

The battle: I have no confidence in the e-file and in general in the playability of WW1 campaigns - that's why I chose 150% prestige.
Landing operations I also do not love and so it goes forward very cautiously. Occasionally reinforcements arrive at various points which are helpful. Nevertheless, the conquest of the last VH was a great effort, because the Ottoman Empire also gathered several units at this point. Ultimately, my troops lacked ammunition - many infantrymen have only 4 or 5 ammunition.

2 First Battle of Krithia ltv

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Battle_of_Krithia
First Battle of Krithia - 28/04/1915
-----------------------------------------------------
General, after having secured the beachheads our next objective will be the heights of Achi Baba, possession of which would allow our artillery to range over the entire peninsula. The Turks have established new lines in front of Krithia, a small town at the slope of Achi Baba. Your task is to break through the Turkish line of defence and reach the heights.
One of your brigades will advance on the extreme left, the other two brigades in the centre. The French are to act as a pivot on the right, and advance along the coast. We are expecting massive Turkish reinforcements arriving very soon, so there is no time to lose. I count on you, General!

NOTE: There is an additional deployment hex on the utmost right flank of the French troops near the coast. (Historically, this was the position of the 2/South Wales Borderers who had landed at "S" beach, far off all other British troops.)
HQ: I bought a British bridge engineer, and a French ATY and support weapon each.

The battle. ... on the same map as in the previous scenario. The battle moves slowly to the north-east. I can't place all the units near the front. Two INF have to be moved to the front by ship. I a) take the wrong route and b) forget to move them in some turns. The result of my performance: I miss the BV, because the Ottomans throw me out of already conquered VH's several times and I am missing exactly these two units there.

Current scenario: First Battle of Krithia, VH prestige is 240 , All map prestige is: 300

3 2nd Battle of Krithia bv-1

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Battle_of_Krithia
2nd Battle of Krithia - 06/05/1915
-----------------------------------------------------
General, during the last days we had to endure a number of Turkish counter-attacks. Fortunately, we have been able to fight them off. Similar counter-attacks were repulsed at ANZAC Cove, so that General William Birdwood, commander of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, has deemed his front sufficiently secure to enable two brigades to be moved to Helles for our next assault on Krithia. The Australian 2nd Infantry Brigade and the New Zealand Infantry Brigade will join you during the forthcoming operation. Other British reinforcements include a Brigade from the Royal Naval Division and the 125th Brigade from the 42nd (East Lancashire) Division. Nevertheless, the men of your 29th Division will once again be at the forefront of the attack.

As for the first battle, the plan is for a general advance on a broad front across the peninsula with the French on the right of the line, and our British and Commonwealth troops in the centre and on the left.

Good luck!
HQ: I bought a French machine gun.

The battle: there are short distances to all VH's and it looks like a quick victory. But the defenders are stacked and numerous MG bunkers give each other supporting fire, so my attacking units dissolve like snow in the spring sun.
Also, the Ottomans have plenty of barrage ATY, which causes unscheduled casualties among my troops.
The aux battleships can only join the battle in the north. In the south, the coast is too far from the front line - the range of the ship's artillery is not sufficient.

4 3rd Battle of Krithia bv-5

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Battle_of_Krithia
3rd Battle of Krithia - 04/06/1915
-----------------------------------------------------
General, during the last weeks the British contingent on the Helles front has been expanded to three division and a brigade. However, the situation at Helles remains perilous. We are short of guns and ammunition. Furthermore, after HMS Triumph and HMS Majestic have been torpedoed by the enemy in May, the situation has even worsened as our naval gunfire support was reduced. Fortunately, our French ally has been able to lend us some of his fine 75s batteries that now have been deployed in our sector of the Helles front.

The objectives for the forthcoming battle are as follows:
While the French advance against Haricot Redoubt on the right, and the 42nd Division and Royal Naval Divison - supported by some armoured cars of the RNAS - attack in the centre, 29th Division has again the difficult task to push the frontline up Gully Ravine. This area has recently been heavily fortified by the Turks, so expect a hard and bloody fight. Your troops will be joined by the 29th Indian Brigade.

Good luck, General! You will need it.
HQ: converted the entire British INF to French models - each has the same price, but the French have the better combat ratings. Likewise the British ATY to a French model (+4 ammo) and the influence bridge pioneer to a sapper.

The battle: ... I've been slowly getting into the campaign. I now try less frontal attacks and use the planes to interrupt the supply of the enemy ATY. There are also more aux barrage ATY available, which makes the battle easier.

Planning the next step - July 1915
-----------------------------------------------------
General,

the GHQ has proposed a new major operation to reinvigorate this campaign. Additional troops will be landed at Ari Burnu in order to support ANZAC in capturing the Sari Bair ridge, the high ground that dominates the middle of the peninsula above the ANZAC landing. Its seizure would threaten the whole Turkish positions to the south of it. This operation will be in conjunction with a fresh landing five miles north of ANZAC - at Suvla Bay - which should eliminate the threatening of the rear of troops taking part in the main attack at ANZAC.

Since our forces here at Cape Helles are to remain largely on the defensive, we could need the help of your veteran troops both at Suvla Bay and at Ari Burnu. You may decide where your men will be more useful.

NOTE:
If you want to take part in the "Landing at Suvla Bay", choose a V by taking the VH "Suvla".
If you want to support the "ANZAC Breakout", choose a TV by taking the VH "ANZAC".
I chose the ANZAC Breakout.

6 ANZAC Breakout v (bv+1)
ANZAC Breakout - 06/08/1915
--------------------------------------------------
G'day, General! Welcome, to ANZAC Cove! Let me explain to you the plan for the forthcoming operation that hopefully will become the breakthrough in this campaign.

While diversionary attacks will be delivered by the Australians at Lone Pine and at the Nek, your troops will take part in the main attack. Two columns will advance upon the Sari Bair range with the aim of capturing the high ground. The right-hand column will head for Chunuk Bair, the left-hand column for Hill 971 and neighbouring Hill Q. For our advance we will use the "deres" - dried gullies that offer the easiest paths through the difficult terrain.
Once we have taken the high ground we will be able to link with the landing at Suvla Bay.

Good luck!
HQ: no activities

The battle: ... very difficult terrain. From the beach up into the mountains. There again and again single defense positions, which have to be destroyed laboriously to clear the way. Several barrage ATY on Ottoman side causes unplanned losses. The VH's again defended by stacked units. Just before BV-turn-limit, Ottomans receive reinforcements from several directions. This prevents BV and threatens already captured VH's - by all means leave defenders behind for this.
The fighter has its first dogfight against a barrage balloon. Unfortunately, it can otherwise only passively engage in combat because it is without ground attack.

7 Chunuk Bair ltv

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Chunuk_Bair
Chunuk Bair - 10/08/1915
--------------------------------------------------
General, our breakout has run into difficulties! We are still holding the summit of Chunuk Bair, but we had to relieve the Wellington battalion which has suffered heavy casualties while defending Chunuk Bair, and replace those brave New Zealanders by two inexperienced New Army battalions. At Hill Q, the Gurkhas have been driven off the hill and are waiting for reinforcements at the slopes. Your troops are ordered to retake Hill Q by a determined assault as well as hold our positions at Chunuk Bair. The enemy is sending further regiments to the front line, and will have plenty of artillery available. We will try to give you as much fire support as possible, but don't expect too much.

Good luck, General!
HQ: full OS on both ATY, the MG and the support weapon.

The battle: a VH in the east is lost within the first two turns, but is later recaptured with moderate losses. The VH in the north-east is difficult to take. It is defended by stacked units as well as two ATY and several fortifications, all giving support fire. One MG is firing at my planes and I cannot permanently cut off supply to the enemy ATY. All my attacks end in losses and without success and it takes a very long time until the defenders finally give up.

8 Hill 60 bv-1

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of ... Gallipoli)
Hill 60 - 21/08/1915
--------------------------------
General, after our attempt to take the hills of the Sari Bair range has failed, we at least want to consolidate our meagre territorial gains. Hill 60, in the north of our sector, is the last obstacle between us and our troops at Suvla Bay. If you are able to take this hill - thus connecting our troops at ANZAC and Suvla - this would facilitate possible future operations.
The Indian and ANZAC battalions that will support your assault are severely under strength with many of the soldiers wracked by dysentery. So, your men will again bear the brunt of the attack. Break through the Turkish trench lines and storm the summit of Hill 60!

Good luck, General!
HQ: full OS again on ATY, MG and support weapon.

The battle: ... very short distances to the two VH's. The enemy barrage ATY is not as effective as in the previous scenarios. Nevertheless, I repaired my Chasseurs Alpins during the scenario to not jeopardize reaching the VH's in the mountains.

9 Cape Helles Evacuation tv (mandatory)
Cape Helles Evacuation 07/01/1916
----------------------------------------------------------
General, since our failed August offensive, there have been discussions going on about breaking off this whole ill-fated campaign. Recently, Bulgaria has joined the Central Powers, so that Germany now can supply the Turks with heavy artillery and ammunition by rail to Istanbul which makes our situation even more precarious. Furthermore, troops are needed to support Serbia and Greece against the Central Powers' combined offensive in the Balkans. In November, Lord Kitchener visited the peninsula to get a clear picture of the situation here at the Dardanelles Front and finally accepted the need for evacuation. In December, the evacuation of our troops at Suvla and ANZAC was completed successfully.
The evacuation of Helles will start in a couple of hours, and your 29th Division has been given the task to act as rearguard against a possible Turkish attack on our retreating troops.
You have to hold your positions at all costs, until the wounded have embarked and equipment and ammunition that we have to leave behind have been destroyed.

NOTE: Use the Royal Engineers to destroy the stores and dumps on the VHs at Sedd-El-Bahr and at 'W' Beach. You also have to occupy these two VHs! After that you can embark the Royal Engineers and the "Wounded" from the shores. The scenario will be won as soon as you have occupied the VHs on the ocean.
HQ: one last time full OS on ATY, MG and support weapon.

The Battle: The Ottomans have a balloon and can see 8 hexes - this explains why the Barrage ATY can decimate my units without an enemy in sight. During the scenario I had to repair INF several times. Otherwise, organize the flight in the south and hold the position in the north - done.

End of the first campaign part ...

In between campaign music: 1914 - Ottoman Rise
Thru the night
I hear war-cries
Shots and whistles of yataghans
Here comes the 57th infantry Regiment
Lead by Ataturk

Our ANZAC Corps
Was entrenched at the Gallipoli coast
Ottoman machine-guns
Met us with fire
We did not expect
Such furious defense
So far away from home
We died
At the nomads land

Back into the sea
Away from the coast
Back into the sea
Drop the gun and run

We thought they were barbarians
But encountered
Well-trained and organized imperial army
With cannons and machine-guns
How can we win
When their commander
Ordered them:

I do not order to fight,
I order you to die.
In the time which passes
Until we die,
other troops
Can come forward
And take our places
Inshalah!

Ottoman rise!
Inshalah!
... and start of the second campaign part.

1 Defence of the Suez Canal lttv

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raid_on_the_Suez_Canal
Defence of the Suez Canal, 3rd February 1915

A few days ago, a division-strong enemy force crossing the Sinai desert has been spotted by a French hydroplane. Obviously, the Turks are planning a major assault on the Suez Canal.
At the moment, the Canal is only defended by some battalions of the Indian Army. You are ordered to build a capable defence force from the British and ANZAC troops that are undergoing training in the Nile Delta.

Ships of the Royal Navy will support your troops with all their firepower, so you should be able to thwart the Turkish plans to cross the Canal and defend our outposts on the eastern shore. We cannot allow the Turks to threaten our most important supply line. So cross the Canal with your troops as soon as possible and clear the whole area.

NOTE:
You can only cross the Suez Canal from the ports of Ismailia (hex 18,23) and Serapeum (hex 20,30).

PURCHASING HINTS:
Taking into account the difficult desert terrain of this and the following scenarios, you are strongly recommended to rely very much on mounted units (cavalry, horse artillery, and mounted infantry).
HQ: I bought two cavalry and one towed ATY.

The battle: ... i started twice. Both times without any meaningful tactics. It emerged only in the course of the battle and the actions / attacks of the enemy. About half time it was clear that the northern VH could not be held and the recapture could only be done by INF, which sailed north on the channel, went ashore and threw the enemy out of the city - with a lot of luck this succeeded in the last turn. In the south I was successful with my cavalry and aux units.

2 Agagia ltbv
Agagia, 26th February 1916

During the Gallipoli campaign in 1915 neither the Turks nor we had anything to spare for greater efforts in Sinai. So things here have been relatively quiet for some months. Our main concern at the moment are the Arab and Berber tribes of the Western Desert. The Senussi, a hostile religious fraternity led by Said Idris Ahmed, have declared "jihad" on us and our Italian allies, who have been occupying Libya since 1911. The Turks have delivered artillery and machine guns to the Senussi by German submarines, and equipped a force of about 5,000 bedouins with which Jaafar Pasha, a Turkish officer, intends to capture the small ports at the Libyan and Egyptian coast.

The Senussi raids already forced us to evacuate Sollum and Sidi Barrani, and the frontier posts have been withdrawn to Mersa Matruh. Now that considerable forces have returned from Gallipoli, we should be able to defeat this insurgency. The main hostile force has been reported to be at Agagia, somewhere south east of Sidi Barrani.

The 1st South African Brigade and an armoured car detachment of the Royal Navy Air Service (RNAS) will join your forces during this operation that should not only destroy the Senussi force, but also relieve Sidi Barrani.

NOTE: Our scouts will let you know as soon as they discover the exact location of the Senussi camp. So keep an eye on the map!
HQ: I bought three marines

The battle: ... was a relatively easy task because the opponent does not lead his strongest units onto the battlefield.
I rate it as very positive that so far no stacked units defend the VH's.
The use of cavalry gives a bit of a blitzkrieg feel - but for how much longer?

3 Medean Pass ltbv
Medean Pass, 9th March 1916
------------------------------------------------
We have pursued the remnants of the enemy all across the desert til the gates of Sollum. It is unlikely that the Senussi will put much effort in defending the city itself, but probably they will try to stop us at the Medean Pass and deny us entering their Libyan homeland. So be prepared to encounter stout resistance in the hills south of Sollum.

Our task is not only to retake Sollum and secure the Medean Pass, but also to relieve our Italian allies, who are sieged by the Senussi at Bardia, and finally, to destroy the Senussi war camp at Bir Asiso. For this operation, a company of the Imperial Camel Corps and the Duke of Westminster's armoured car detachment will temporarily be under your command.
HQ: I downgraded the cavalry to the older model - it has higher SA. The inexperienced INF was sold and in return a MG was acquired.

The Battle: The enemy's resistance is medium and the task manageable. Nevertheless, there are serious losses and supply in the desert is problematic and ammunition must be under constant control. Occasionally the units have to take a break on a hill to be fully supplied.

4 Romani bv-1
Romani, 3rd August 1916
----------------------------------------
General von Kressenstein, the German director of last year's vain Turco-German attack on the Suez Canal, has prepared a more formidable movement of invasion across the Sinai Desert. Instead of attempting a surprise attack across the centre of the Sinai wastes, the German commander has made a well-heralded movement along the ancient caravan track by the Mediterranean shore.

The Turks, supported by the German "Pascha I" detachment and some Austrian mountain howitzer batteries, have brushed aside and scattered British cavalry and infantry formations that tried to bar their advance. The situation is getting serious, since Kressenstein's troops have already reached the oasis of Katia.

To meet the threat to the canal and Egypt, we must prepare to halt the rolling Turkish juggernaut. At the moment some Australian Light Horse regiments have occupied a position about seven miles west of Katia, and about eighteen miles east of Port Said. From the coast our entrenchments curve towards the oasis of Romani, and the new desert railway station near by. You and your men are ordered to reinforce our Australian comrades and repulse the expected Turkish attack. Good luck, General!
HQ: the INF improved and sidegraded the Recon to a better model.

The battle: ... in the first turns some VH's are lost, which have to be recaptured during the scenario. The fast units (Cavalry, Light Cavalry) ride first to the east later to the south and liberate Abu Hamra, Er-Rabah and Katia.
The slow units (INF, MG and ATY) defend Bir Etmaler and recapture Wellington Ridge and Mount Meredith - here the enemy is strongest and fortunately there are some aux units available for the fight.

5 Magdhaba bv-4
Magdhaba, 22nd December 1916
-----------------------------------------------------
After defeating the Turks at Romani, the next objective for the Egyptian Expeditionary Force was El Arish. When the EEF advanced along the Sinai coast in December, reconnaissance advised that the enemy had apparently abandoned the village. So the town was captured without a fight on 20th December. A few captured prisoners told our interrogators that the garrison was heading inland along the Wadi el Arish.

Our troops, including the Imperial Camel Corps Brigade and 3rd Light Horse Brigade, have pursued the Turks to the tiny village of Magdhaba. The enemy position consists of a number of strong redoubts and a few connecting trenches, and is defended mainly by 80th Regiment, 27th (Arab) Division.

The Turks at Magdhaba possess the only known water in the area. It is imperative that you capture the position quickly, so that our horses can be watered. If you don't take Magdhaba during the day, our troops would have to withdraw to our wells at El Arish.
HQ: I bought the second ATY.

The battle: ... was relatively easy, although some VH's were defended by stacked units.
The mounted aux units bypassed the center of the map and captured the VH in the southeast. All others, especially the core units, launched a successful frontal assault on the center. I was able to win even sooner, but played one more trun and destroyed some opponents and gained experience.

6 Rafa bv-1
Rafa, 8th January 1917
-------------------------------------
It has been decided to press our advance as rapidly as possible along the coast, and so by indirect pressure compel the Turks to retire from the Sinai highlands. As a preliminary step your troops will raid the Turkish force in position at El Magruntein Hill, close to the old Egyptian police post at Rafa.

There is some evidence to suggest that the Turks have established strong redoubts at the heights, so be prepared for a determined bayonet charge against their trenches. Our intelligence indicates that enemy reinforcements might come to help the Rafa outpost from Khan Yunis and from the east. Once again, speed is essential for our victory! Good luck!

HQ: I bought transport for the INF.

The battle: ... the eastern VH is undefended and so all units can concentrate on El Magruntein. Some aux units and a bomber are additionally available. They are also urgently needed because the defense is well organized and a lot of supporting fire is given.

7 First Gaza bv-1
First Gaza, 26th March 1917
-----------------------------------------
After a cautious advance by night - avoiding vigilant observation by German Fokker planes - we have reached the Gaza area. Hopefully, we will be able to take the garrison by surprise in the morning.

Our latest information suggests that Gaza is held by only 4,000 troops under the command of Tala Bey, and the enemy's closest support is at Hareira, ten miles to the south-east. Against this force we will be able to field about 22,000 rifles. With this advantage in numbers and mobility, the prospect of successfully rushing Gaza before Turkish reinforcements could arrive appears exceedingly good.

While the infantry will make a frontal attack on the positions defending Gaza, your mounted troops are ordered to strike out east and north with the double object of holding up Turkish reinforcements from the east and southeast, and cutting off the retreat of the main body should the town be taken.

Good luck, General!
HQ: no activities

The battle: takes place as described in the briefing. Of course, I forgot about the attack of the Ottoman reinforcements from the east since the last time I worked on this campaign. The surprise was big, but I was able to repair the mistake and retake the VH after a few turns.

The fighter proto is almost useless. With 40 fuel he can only start once and has to go back immediately - his movement is 20 hex.

8 Second Gaza bv-5
Second Gaza, 19th April 1917
---------------------------------------------
Our Command in Chief, General Murray, is quite optimistic about the prospects of our second attempt to take Gaza. The plan is for another frontal infantry assault on the Turkish positions at Gaza after two days of preliminary bombardment, while our cavalry will attack further east. Several new infantry divisions have arrived, and we have been sent a few tanks from the Western Front. French and British warships support us with all their firepower along the coast.

Well, that's the plan - and if I might speak frankly, Sir - I don't think much of it. The enemy has been alerted by our first attack on Gaza. The defences have apparently been strengthened since the first battle, and their forces around Gaza are growing day by day.

Let's hope for the best! Good luck, General!
HQ: I bought two mountain ATY and a MG - it would have been better if I had bought a Sapper, which can build airfields. I can't use my plane because the distance from the airfield to the front line is so great that it crashes on the return flight due to lack of fuel.

The battle: same map as previous scenario, same task, again Ottoman reinforcements from the east, more entrenchment, more stacked units - very monotonous. I try to finish the campaign quickly now, no matter if there is still prestige on map ...

9 Beersheba bv-2
Beersheba, 31st October 1917
----------------------------------------------
After General Murray was relieved of his command in April, our new commander-in-chief, General Sir Edmund Allenby - a tall, heavy cavalryman nicknamed "The Bull" due to his physics and his explosive temper - has filled our army with new enthusiasm and developed a new plan to finally overcome the Gaza Line.
Instead of waging another fruitless frontal assault on Gaza, there will be only a feint attack on the city. The main thrust will take place on the extreme left flank of the enemy, at Beersheba. With this town in our hands, we should have an open flank against which to operate, and full use could be made of our superiority in mounted troops. Moreover, a success here offered prospects of pursuing our advantage, and forcing the enemy to abandon the rest of his fortified positions.

While XXth Corps will attack between the Khalassa Road and the Wadi Saba south-west of the town, our mounted troops will make a wide flanking movement, secure the Hebron Road and attack Beersheba from the east and north-east. It is essential that Beersheba is in our hands before nightfall, since it posesses the only wells in the area.

NOTE: You will be able to buy experienced units in this scenario, reflecting the reinforcements that came to Palestine from the Salonika Front.
HQ: In this scenario, new units are offered with 200exp. Therefore, I sold most of the inexperienced units and bought the same ones again with 200exp.
I also bought a Sapper to build airfields near the front.

The battle: is relatively easy, because there were less stacked units. My Sapper could concentrate on fighting because an airfield was near the front line for the first time. My Airforce were able to gain notable experience for the first time.

10 Advance on Jerusalem bv-1
Advance on Jerusalem, 19th November 1917
-------------------------------------------------------------------
After the fall of Gaza, the EEF advanced along the Maritime Plain and then performed a right turn into the Judean Hills in order to march on Jerusalem.

We just have taken city of Latron and are now entering the Judean Hills which block our approach to the Holy City. Given the importance of Jerusalem heavy Turkish resistance is to be expected.
HQ: OS on the entire ATY. Bought a Guards - unfortunately without experience.

The battle: I aborted the first attempt just before the BV limit - own core losses and no chance of BV. In the second attempt I positioned the troops differently, built the airfield (there is none on the map) centrally, took the VH's in a better order and was prepared for the Ottoman reinforcements just before the BV limit.

11 Jerusalem bv-4
Jerusalem, 30th December 1917
-------------------------------------------------
General, the orders for the final assault on Jerusalem have been given!

While 60th and 74th Division will attack the Turkish defensive line along the Wadi Surar, your mounted troops will have to hold Turkish reinforcements at bay which are approaching the theatre from the north all along the Suffa-Foka-Tahta-Line. Furthermore, it is recommended that you use your infantry to secure our position at Nebi Samwil.

Lloyd George has asked "The Bull" to present him Jerusalem for Christmas...

NOTE: You will be able to buy experienced units in this scenario.
HQ: I bought a Guard and two Gurkhas

The battle: ... is difficult. The aux units have many tasks. They have to try to get across the river towards Jerusalem without heavy losses and defend the northern VH's.
The core units succeed in breaking through the enemy lines on the road north of Jerusalem after a big fight. They then encounter isolated enemies and can advance almost unhindered to the VH in Jerusalem and support the aux units in conquering the remaining VH's.
Note: The Ottomans receive reinforcements toward the end of the BV turn limit and attack the VH's in the north.
