Yes for battles we must be very flexible, but suggesting that our Jaeger units remain further out on the battlefield and away from armor support is a surefire way to lose them fast if the enemy has a chance to fire back. I do agree that laying in ambush along the road is still a valid tactic, but do it so that Cuirassier units are among the Jaeger ones, having both as close together as possible increases the effectiveness of both units. At least in theory... And when the flow of battle forces us to change our formations, the jaeger should try not to expose themselves needlessly and remain behind or at least among Cuirassier forces."
Then Hannes turned to Albert. "The infantry screening for the armor? Yes that makes sense, I agree with you on that." The lieutenant seemed a little uncomfortable when Albert mentioned that armored vehicles aren't necessarily more survivable but he brushed off that comment and returned his gaze onto his notebook to review what he wrote.

"Two roads... If we want to do an ambush then that would mean splitting up or waiting for them to converge into one line..." He grumbled to contemplate this.
"Oh!" He began scribbling on his piece of paper and then turned it around, letting the others see what he drew. "How about this? We have some elements harden their position in the forest east of the northern road, they will hold fire until the enemy reaches the crossroads. Meanwhile the other group to the west remains further back as there is little room for them to hide, they move in to flank the enemy forces as they have to adjust to the first ambush, we'd take them on in an ambush from the right and a sweeping advance from the left!" Rheiner seemed a little proud of himself.
