Since this thread seems to be the scenario thread, I'll post the pre-game images of one of my Combat Mission games that's since resolved. I figure it'd be interesting to see what /k/ tactics would be in comparison to what I did. For the purposes of seeing both sides, I'll spoiler information about each side's composition.
>Scenario
WWII, US Army VS. German Army, Late Summer 1944
>Mission
Occupy Benedendorps Weg or force opposition to surrender/withdraw
>Terrain
The 'map' area is quite small and rather restrictive. North to South and East to West it measures only about a kilometer across. While flat spots exist, there is in general a gradual slope rising from the South (low) to the North (high). Forested areas are dense and ideal for concealing infantry, although very restrictive to vehicles.
>Other restrictions/rules
This is a meeting engagement, US enters from the West (left side of image) Germans from the East (right side of image) simultaneously
No fully tracked vehicles are available to either side
No advanced, preplanned bombardments will take place
It is assumed that the objective is important for both sides to seize that all reasonable attempts will be made, until such point that one side is forced to concede.
After one hour a divinely enforced ceasefire will occur
>US Army information
Your force is roughly company strength, consisting of four rifle platoons, an under-strength combat engineer platoon and a machinegun section. In addition, two pairs of 81mm mortars are at your disposal, equipped with both HE and smoke rounds. A M2HB .50cal HMG with the crew required to move and man it are also attached. Two M8 Armored Cars (Greyhounds) are also attached. All men are assumed to be of rather standard quality. Finally, a pair of P-47D Thunderbolts are on station to provide fire support on request. They are not equipped with any ordinance beyond their machine guns.
Your knowledge of the enemy force is sparse. It is likely they are of a similar size, although they may be larger or smaller in numbers depending on supporting elements. It is highly likely that they contain at least some light (=<37mm) anti-aircraft weapons.
>German Army information
Your force consists, nominally, of a mechanized/motorized company. You have roughly three platoons of veteran/crack panzergrenadiers, including machine gun squads. While indirect fire support is unavailable, you have two halftracks equipped with 75mm short barreled cannons, as well as two halftracks with 15mm autocannons in a triple mount. Adding on to your anti-aircraft weaponry is a pair of Flak 38s in static mounts. A pair of Kubelwagens and a pair of Opel Blitzs are also available, each containing substantial ammunition if required.
