FFT3 AAR
Last
Saturday we had another game of FFT3 (Modern). The scenario was loosely based
on the 1990s friction between Russia and Ukraine concerning the naval bases of
the former USSR.
In our scenario
Russia took the bases with special forces and attacked to make a buffer.

| The Russian infantry attacking |
The forces
Russia good
2 light
para battalions (Inf)
2 para
assault battalions (BMD + Inf)
Rocket
launchers in support
Ukraine fair
3 BTR rifle
battalions (BTR + Inf)
 |
| The Ukrainian Reservs |
As we set
up the Board the Ukrainian commander seeing his 3 OBJ (2x Towns + 1 Hill) decided
to put 1 battalion in each town and to keep the third in reserve close to the
hill. The Russians on the other hand decided to attack the Town close to the
hill with their infantry and use the BMD battalions to attack the further most
town.
 |
| The Russian attack from two sides |
As the
assault (BMD) battalions attacked the Russian art fired a few smoke rounds to
cover their move.
When they
were close the infantry disembarked and they all assaulted the Town. Both sides
put up a good fight in the Town but after a few rounds the Ukrainians gave way,
the Russian losses were substantial.
 |
The assault
battalions then turned and started to go for the hill. The Ukrainian commander
seeing this ordered his reserve battalion to disembark its troop on the path of
the incoming BMDs. The battalion ATGMs started to take shots at the incoming Russians
taking out a few BMDs.
 |
| The aatck on the first Town |
Finally the
Russian infantry battalions started to assault the second Town. The Ukrainians
against all hope held the Town until the end of the game.
 |
| The attack on the first Town |
When we
finished the game each had a town and the Ukranians held the hill, but they
(Ukrainian) had lost 1+3/4 battalions.
