[16:28 hours] - Our skirmishing forces have met head on.
At area C, our Atz'mah provided an overwhelming amount of firepower, helping the Heer Soldaten on the hill pass quickly lay low the Ashigaru. Some losses were incurred dealing with the crossbowmen using the elevation as cover, but now the handful remaining are in retreat.
At the farm house, our snipers allowed the men to get close and begin picking off the Yumi bowmen, whose unwieldy bows are not fit to fire at medium range. Although a few in the line manage to turn their bows sideways and get off a few subsonic arrows, pinning some Heer men and taking out our Zerem on that side. They are stubborn bastards, using their bulletproof armor to the best effect they can to survive. We've taken out a quarter, but now they're drawing wakizashi and trying to close the gap to attack.
The firing line is moving closer to the trade post's wall. They picked off a pair of machine gunners. They may be emboldened to attempt to take the post and claim the honor themselves.
The Banzai is preparing to launch... estimated (72%) ready to charge.
Howitzer operational. Our Raam have successfully fixed the jamming issue. We have shells at the ready.
[Personnel lost: 10]
1. Group One breakaway at Area C.

2. Howitzer.
>Begin close range bombarding of the firing line.
>Fire afar. Hit the Banzai before they're ready.
