The Game Today's game, Slammers versus Greenwood's Archers with Jason Thompson. The Objective Slammers objective get as many of the 5 convoy vehicles off the table. Conversely Greenwood's had to capture/destroy as many as they could. Greenwood's win Initiative and quickly move out of the woods nearest the head of the convoy and quickly take control of the 2 lead trucks. We decide to use infantry assaulting vehicle rules to capture the trucks. A successful assault rendered the driver killed or incapacitated and the assaulting TU takes control of vehicle rather than destroying it. The Slammers first infantry detachment in the body of the convoy, moves out to the flanks and the infantry pile out of the jeeps and retake the vehicles. The lead recon jeep with a sensor suite range 30cm, is quickly knocked out on the road after detecting only 1 dummy mine from the 3 mine tokens in range. This forces the convoy to detour up the side road. The Greenwood's attackers move out and try and get shots on the Slammers. Between poor dice and the fact that jeeps could hide alongside the hedges and not being seen result in only 1 infantry TU taking 1 suppression.
