Grid E4 Studica The Briolui Army has an airbase close to the border with Erotema in a very strategic position for the ongoing war. For so, it must be taken. The surroundings are muddy due to the recent floods. The barbed wire limit the perimeter and no trees remain, as they were cut to benefit the defense. 1 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr Two Briolui soldiers inspect the barbed wire when the death whistle of a 155 mm shell burst sounds clear…and near…very near… 2 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr And the best they can do is just run, run to save their lives. 2 bis by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr A few seconds later the artillery shells pound the terrain creating small craters 4 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr When the enemy is on sight, a storm of fire is directed to the attacking force. 3 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr 3 bis by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr 3 tris by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr 3 quater by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr COAC tanks appear soon. Maybe they are no match for the light weapons the Briolui soldiers have. Besides, the mine sweeping roller provides extra protection. 5 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr 5 bis by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr And, who cares the weapons you have when you just simply…die? 6 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr The machine gun gunner dies a few seconds later 6 bis by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr A barbed wire is a very easy obstacle for a tank to deal with 7 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr And more Briolui soldiers enter the body count 8 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr The barbed wire is now ready for the COAC troops to storm the enemy position 9 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr 10 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr Soldiers from Erotema and New Brickika go out from the tanks. As the engine is in the front, a few privates can be carried inside (crowded as anchovies in a can). One of them has a MANPADS (man portable air defence system). Why? 11 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr Well, when attacking an airbase there can be an airstrike…They see a jet taking off, loaded with fuel tanks to fly south, far away and probably going to a grid where New Brickika´s troops are attacking another base at the same time. 11 bis by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr But that lonely jet will never arrive to its target, because the MANPADS is shot… 11 ter by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr And the enemy jet receives a critical impact, rendering it unable to attack, covered in flames and with a certain crash soon. This is a coordinate attack with other forces. The other Erotema troops, commanded by SkyPie, are attacking another base, and they need fire support. In the background and at a short distance from the fire, they prepare such a support… ROMEO LIMA (for Rocket Launcher) to SIERRA PAPA (for SkyPie), transmit target coordinates. SIERRA PAPA transmitting coordinates…E4 12 - 14 ROMEO LIMA roger, entering position…FIRE. Rockets inbound. SIERRA PAPA roger. That´s why one of the tanks left and an MLRS has arrived and opens fire. Meanwhile, the infantry deploys and gets ready for the final assault. 12 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr 12 bis by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr The enemy bunker is on fire.
