Red/Blue Campaign Turns 2-4

Following their failure to take the left hand bridge, Division 3 of the Redinan Army spent some time reorganizing themselves. In the meantime, a Brigade from Division 2 crossed the centre bridge and moved West to counter the Bluvian force that was hoping to block the crossing (too late). 

Red's plan was to march straight to the Capital and force the President and other elected officials to resign so that a client king could be established. Blue's was simply to drive out the invaders.

Turn 2 moves

 

The second battle in the campaign was joined near a small village in the middle of nowhere. It was a fairly uneventful affair that ground to a halt by turn 11, as both sides reached Exhaustion Point, without any gains being made. Bluvia had failed to stop Redina from establishing a bridgehead. A couple of pics from the "action" follow.

Turn 3 moves

Turn 3 saw the Redinan 2nd Division crossing the Boundary River and the Bluvian Division C marching West to counter them. Blue's B Division moved South East to block the straight route to the Capital.

Turn 4 moves

Turn 4 saw the next battle as elements of the Red Division 2 and Blue Division C clashed.

Blue needed a success here to push Red back towards the River. Again, however, the battle was fairly indecisive as both armies fought to a standstill by the end of the day. Some pics follow.

Bluvia has so far failed to stop Redina, however the invasion is possibly stalling. Both sides are looking for a decisive action in Turn 5.
