I'm thinking this way. Its 4 hours until Pioneer Battalion gets here. We can adopt a "falling back" strategy. Our goal is to defend the area, not be aggressive.
I'd airlift the wounded out, and have all units move back one space, and then fortify.
Or, if airlifting is not acceptable, move them back, but set everyone in a fortified position (only wounded are moved).
We hold a nice position, I'd rather not enter the mountains--we don't know where they are or how many. I'd rather lay off and go defensive then lose a trooper or two.
I'd move my two troopers on the NW side to for a line with the guys to the SE (forms a vertical line, to defend against flanking attacks). Then all units fortify.
I think we can hold this position for another turn. Maybe two, if we're lucky.
We either need to have the wounded be evacuated to the rear, or let them rest while we hold the enemy off. -----------------------

I asked for your orders in by Sunday. It is now Tuesday.
I have nothing.
I did not receive orders for turn 1 either. The West front were punctual, so why can't you be?
Post your orders here. Lieutenant Tycho, post your version as well.
If Colonel TJ has not informed me of his orders (or given a pretty damn good exuse) by Wednesday, I will have no choice but to relieve him of his command.
That is all. -----------------------

1) I did state MY move in turn 1.
2) Tycho what about this...
We move all unwounded soldies one square northwest and fortify them and do the following to the the three wounded...
SouthWest- Move 1 square north...rest.
SouthCenter-Move 2 squares northwest.
SouthEast- Move 1 square North...rest.
That way they are protected by fellow soldiers and two are able to heal. The third will have a fortification as well as the fellow soldier to protect him. -----------------------

Colonel TJ,
Your plan sounds good to me, sir. One problem--the wounded can't fortify...they're too weak***.
Using this plan, all unwounded soldiers remain where they are, yes? I also would like my units to be fortified.
Nice plan. Wounded are protected. Good defensive position with a chance to retreat if we need to. I highly recommend you take this course of action, Colonel. A sturdy plan, with very few risks. GO FOR IT!
***OOC: it takes 1 movement point to fortify, and the wounded units only have 1 movement point to begin with. -----------------------

Hmm...realizing the fact that the wounded only have 1 movement point...what I was thinking won't really work. (Unless we do not rest the wounded this turn or alter the plan a little) -----------------------

Hmmm...you realize that one of yours is wounded? I don't really want to take the risk of a third of our front.
My Move:
Northern: Staying Put.
Southern: Moving 1 north to get under the protection of Northern
Western: Moving 1 southwest to protect his wounded (since he has decided to stay put.)
Eastern: Moving 1 north. -----------------------

Colonel, may I suggest giving the wounded time to rest and heal? Or would that be working contrary to your plans?

Here our options, as I see it.
Run quickly or run slowly.
Run quickly: every unit moves 2 spaces back every turn. Airlift facilities will be utilized to withdraw 4 units per turn. First to be airlifted will be the wounded, and then unhurt units, as space allows.
Run slowly: every unit moves a single space back every turn and FORTIFIES. Airlift facilities will be used ONLY to take out wounded units.
I advise that two of my troopers be rotated into combat--from the tactical map, the defense against flankers isn't necessary anymore.
Colonel, sir, we're about to be overrun. Once we hit the bridge fortifications, we rally and push them back to give pioneer batallion some space.
My condolences to Second Lieutenant Gravin. His forces died as they had lived: with bravery, honor, and freedom. May their souls rest easy with the knowledge that they did NOT die in vain, but that they died for a greater cause, a greater good. Amen. -----------------------

Ok, this will be going somewhat against orders. We're ordered to conduct a "fighting withdrawal". Problem: we could very well be overrun if we do this.
I propose that we duck orders a tad bit and make an orderly withdrawal instead.
All units go 2 spaces back, wounded evacuated to the bridge fortifications as needed.
Problem: That leaves the Western Front very open to the Cleoggi "crossing the 'T' " as they put it. The Cleoggi are on a broad front. If we retreat without telling them of our plans and their front retreating as well...they'll lose at a minimum two or three troopers, if not the entire platoon.
With your permission, General Jalanus, I'd like to send a runner between the Western and Southern fronts so we can coordinate movement a bit more effectively, as we're in dire straits. This is assuming, however, that Colonel Cosmic and Colonel TJ are not in communication with each other. -----------------------

OOC: Gravin, your forces aren't gone totally. Two units are completely wiped out, while another unit of yours is banged up pretty good. You're left with one unscathed unit. -----------------------

Seeing that Cosmic is willing to provide backup as we escape I think we that should indeed retreat the max. 2 squares this turn and airlifting the wounded. -----------------------

Should we airlift as many troopers as possible, along with the wounded, back to the fortifications every turn? -----------------------

If we are allowed to airlift healthy troopers lets do it. If we can we should airlift the two wounded troopers and two troopers closest to the enemy on this first turn, while the rest of the troops move the max 2 squares north. -----------------------

We're in some hot water...
My recommendation: continue the retreat to the bridge as we have done (every unit 2 spaces back, and the platoon closest to the enemy get airlifted to the bridge).
The next unhurt platoon that reaches the bridge should recoinnoiter a little...move 1 space, fortify, etc., to protect the eastern flank.
Or we could wait to do the eastern patrol until all platoons are at the bridge and accounted for. -----------------------

That means 2 squads from 7th Platoon and 2 squads from 4th Platoon should be airlifted out, while everyone else takes two spaces back (or if their at the bridge, man the fortifications and/or deploy). -----------------------
