Big FJ platoon takes some buildings but foolishly I let teams in the open, where the reserves will appear.

The pioneers notice that their objectives are in danger and move towards them. T-4 north platoon dances around with the fausted FJ platoon. 6th FJR Bridge by Bridge: Some shuffling of troops, no shooting (stupidly didn't shoot the moving FJs at the pioneers).

TURN 4 SUMMARY

Red Bear - Romanian - Tancuri Medii: Romanian pioneers move to safeguard the objectives, reserves appear. T-4s in the north decide to fall back. 6th FJR Bridge by Bridge: FJ 1 moves for the kill, five shots, 4 kills, the pioneers platoon fails it's morale and goes home, stormtrooper to contest. FJ Pioneers moving to help as well.

Last turn, Sotahullu tried to shoot my FJs off the Objective, instead of contesting (tried to advice), with 1 team killed... 6-1 to the BBB boys. VDH resurrected 2 teams.

EDIT:
We played this a bit wrong as I deployed the fortifications from the Supply Truck while the mission does not have prepared positions rule.
