Overview:

The German mounted Operation Taifun began on November 12th and with it the battle for Leros. It gave the Germans control over several strategic areas such as Rachi Hill, located right in the middle of the island. On November 14th, the British decided that the hill had to be retaken and at 9:30 a.m., B and C Companies of the 2 Royal Irish Fusiliers were tasked to move forward, no matter the fierce opposition the fallschirmjagers of Kampfgruppe Kuhne presented.
Attacker: British (B and C Companies, 2nd Royal Irish Fusiliers)

2012-01-14(A) Michael Rodgers vs Erik Lindblad German winDon't do what I did. I put the Bofors in row G level 3 where it covered less than half of hill 740. Hex M3 is probably a better location but it will receive fire from the Germans. I pushed the British down the west side, aided by some smoke. After 3 turns I had a lot of people near hill 740 and a few people on it, but there were many good order Germans on hill 740, so they had no trouble keeping the British away.
