Specific Orders
Situation
We have a mechanised Axis force in pursuit as we 'advance' to the north towards the beach. We will be continuing our movement from Ghyvelde in the south.

Tasks
1. Move to Bray-Dunes.
2. Loot and destroy an enemy cache in Bray-Dunes.
3. Continue retrograde back to the north.
4. Hold back German mechanised and armoured assaulting forces in "Oboe".

The exact plan of movement to Bray-Dunes from the Assembly Area will be given at the beginning of the session, including the assault on Bray-Dunes and the assault on the North-Western Village nicknamed "Oboe".
