You waited for good news- that the rest of your expedition would be arriving before the enemy. That there would be no more fighting today, let alone against a collected and superior enemy force.
No news like that came. Instead, were the words from the Strossvalders.
“You see that, Sparrow Four? Something’s coming from the north.”
“I do. I see tanks. Six…perhaps seven. Unknown type. They are too far out still. There are also trucks, and they may be towing equipment. How close is the assault group?”
“Close,” you answered, “They and the enemy may arrive at the same time.”
“And they are being pursued themselves,” Von Metzeler said, “By enemies who will surely be bolstered by the knowledge of so many of their own close by.”
Thankfully, you did have one thing going for you all. You had had plenty of time to prepare- not enough time to dig in and prepare suitable fortifications, no, especially with the possibility of artillery bombardment now. You did have as good positioning as you’d be allowed.
>Position your units, if you’d like to alter your defense.
