Can we move diagonally?

[MonkeyHead]

Yep. I had contemplated a hex map but my paint skills werent up to it.

[TCM]

Advance to G7, take cover behind the tank trap.

[mesor]

Move to square F15, look for a blast crater and take cover in it then scan the enemy fortifications and pick out as many soldiers I can with all remaining points, paying special attention for officers or enemy snipers.

[Persus13]

((I just realized I can't see the map. Is there some way you can upload it to tinypic or someplace?))

[MonkeyHead]

Will go update the Turn 0 map with a more suitable image sharer.

Edit: ok, done. Hope it works for you now.

[Persus13]

((That looks awesome!))

Jack grabbed his thompson before heading off the boat as fast as possible.

Get behind the stump post in F13

((will there be floating Shermans?)

[MonkeyHead]

There may be a few... 

[scapheap]

Take cover at F7. Look through scoop.

[Remuthra]

I move 1 tile forward to the stump posts, then take cover and fire thrice.

What are you targetting?

True enough.
Move forward one square to the stump posts, take cover, and use binoculars to look for good sniping targets. Then shoot anything that pokes it's head up with my 3 remaining movement points.

If one can take cover by tank traps:
Go to H11, take cover.

[MonkeyHead]

If one can take cover by tank traps:
Go to H11, take cover.

If one cannot:
Move to F13, take cover, and fire if possible.

One can do so. OP has details about the benefits of these (+2 to cover, no mines on them like other cover, can be blown up with difficulty)

Move list

PoH: Move to E4, take cover.

Miauw: Nearest stump post (E7) for cover.

Werty: Get out, deploy mortar, fire a smoke at tank traps so the machineguns at U 11/12 cant see deploying troops.

Freshman: follow miauw62.

TCM: Advance to G7, take cover behind the tank trap.

Mesor: Move to F15, look for a blast crater and take cover. Scan the enemy fortifications and pick out as many soldiers I can with all remaining points, paying special attention for officers or enemy snipers.

Persus: Get behind the stump post in F13

Scapheap: Take cover at F7. Look through scoop.

Remuthra: Move forward one square to the stump posts, take cover, and use binoculars to look for good sniping targets. Shoot anything that pokes it's head up with 3 remaining movement points.

GWG: Go to H11, take cover.

Pies: Run to stump post on F6-7 border, take cover

ggamer: get as far as I can until I hit the shore, then go prone and take cover not behind a stump trap
