Good lessons, but you knew this stuff already. Principles of War. Concentration of forces to achieve critical objectives. Unity of command! All this is a good reason for coalition warfare for democracies.

Thou shalt not piecemeal thy tanks (or thy divisions).
He who defends (or attacks) everything defends (or attacks) nothing.

Sometimes, we forget the stuff we do for real is just important in a wargame.

Organize the effort.
1. Define the mission.
2. Determine the tasks and resources required vs available. Adjust the mission, tasks in accordance with the resources available.
3. Allocate the tasks and resources.
4. Issue the order and follow the preparation.
5. Execute and adjust as the situation develops.

All blessings flow from a good mission statement (and its following 5-paragraph field order).

In Sudan, there is fighting going on in the capital, Khartoum, with two Generals leading forces against each other. They have called for a 24-hour cease fire.
The CoC is sending UCAV-47B overhead to gather information on locations It has been report a Special Forces team has been flown into the region, possibly into Sudan. Two C-130s from the airbase where a S.F. Command is located in Chicoviadom, west of Turkey.
In western Yemen, several flights have landed at an un-named airbase. When the public relations department at the base received an inquiry, a return call
informed the Shelia, of WS-EXY, Action News that there is not a PR Dept at the base nor any spokespeople. Humanitarian effort for the civilians is being organized with food and medical supplies.
