A pair of US attack helicopters soon arrived to stiffen the defence.  TOW missiles were launched...(photo by Bob)

...and the lead Forbodian tanks turned on their smoke generators and reversed. (photo by Ian)

This seemed to cause a degree of traffic confusion. (photo by Ian)

More TOWs found targets though.  But as the Warpact advance continued the US infantry looked set to be swamped. (photo by Russell)

Eventually, having seen off the US tanks, some Forbodian infantry assaulted and overran the position.  (photo by Russell)
