__BRIEFING:*

After a failed counter-attack by your Division, Pact forces renew their offensive. In several places the Soviet troops drive deep, cutting off the retreating NATO forces. While some units fight valiant rear-guard actions others move back to suitable defensive positions to form a secondary defensive line. Once set in place the rear-guard units are given the order to try and fight their way back to the safety of the new defenses.**

D Company, 2nd Battalion, 68th Armor Regiment, 8th Infantry Division has been given one of these rear-guard missions. Now the order has been sent for you to fall back and you and your men move west in an attempt to reach the new positions. To assist you in your efforts, Battalion Command has deployed the Scout Platoon into a perimeter to cover your retreat BUT they have been ordered not to move forward from their assigned locations (Bradley movement rates have been reduced to 2 to simulate this). In addition, they have deployed the Battalion Mortar Section into the area with similiar orders and restrictions.**

__ENEMY INTELLIGENCE:*

Due to the fluid nature of the current front lines intelligence can provide no information on possible enemy forces in the area.
