After your attack is finished, click on the Air Mode button in the Options
bar to view the damaged enemy below.
The Allies retaliate.
Left-click on the End Turn button. Now the Allied Turn 1 panel appears.
Click on the check mark button to continue play. The Spanish
Republican forces should counterattack on their turn, peppering one of your
infantry with artillery fire, then possibly attacking with their own infantry.
Keep a close eye on the amount of damage your units take.
TURN 2
When the computer player has finished its turn, the turn panel appears again,
displaying the following information:
♦ Axis Turn 2
Saturday, December 24, 1936
Weather: Cloudy
Brilliant Victory: 1 Turn Remaining
Victory: 2 Turns Remaining
Tactical Victory: 3 Turns Remaining
Click on the check mark button to continue.
Returning your units to full strength.
The infantry unit 4/6 at hex (19,3) most likely has sustained losses, and may
now be in hex (19,2) after retreating. Select unit 4/6 and right-click on it.
Inside the View Unit panel on the lower right is the Replacements button. Left-
clicking on this button adds strength points back to your unit; if no enemy is
adjacent, your unit returns to full strength. Receiving replacements does cost
you prestige points. If another unit has sustained more damage than 4/6, call
for replacements for that unit instead, so long as it is not adjacent to an
enemy unit. If you attempt to get replacements for a unit adjacent to the
enemy, fewer strength points are added to your unit, reflecting the difficulty
of getting men and supplies so close to the front lines.
Digging in for the assault.
Dismount your artillery units with the Mount - Dismount button in the View Unit
panel, and use them next to destroy enemy opposition around the city. Move
your infantry and tanks on to the city, finishing off any other defenders in your
path. Once you secure your positions around the city, you do not have to advance
your artillery up as you did last turn – Almadrones is within their striking range.
Don’t forget to shell Almadrones again with your bomber unit. When all of your
units have moved or attacked, click on the End Turn button.
TUTORIAL: Playing The Tutorial 12
Move the cursor down to the Select Tactical Bomber button at the bottom of the
screen and left-click on it. In the center of the screen, an icon of the JU87B bomber
unit appears in one of the Available Equipment boxes. Left-click on the JU87B to
bring up the bomber’s statistics. The prestige cost of the unit is given below the
Available Equipment boxes, and your available prestige is given at the top of the
Equipment Statistics area. The JU87B bomber is going to cost you 432 of your 500
prestige points, easily affordable. Click on the Requisition button next to the Total
Cost of Unit indicator at the bottom of the Available Equipment area. A bomber icon
appears in the Units Available for Deployment boxes on the right side of the
Requisitions screen. You have just added a new bomber to your attack force. Left-
click on the Exit button at the bottom right on the screen. If you have made a
mistake, click on the Cancel button to the left of the Exit button and begin again.
When you click on the Exit button, the game returns to the Main Game screen
with the Deployment panel extended. Use the cursor to scroll the screen to the
right on the map by holding the cursor along the right edge of the screen. Since
the bomber unit is the only unit available for deployment, the icon box is
depressed and darkened hexes have appeared around the airfield at hex (21,1).
Left-click on any of these darkened hexes to place the JU87B unit in that hex.
Then click on the Exit Deployment button at the bottom right of the screen.
Attacking from above.
Continue your assault around Almadrones with your new bomber unit. When
you select that unit, available movement hexes include hexes already occupied
by ground units. Air units can occupy the same hex as a ground unit, unlike
other ground units. Move your bomber to hex (19,4) over the enemy artillery
unit 12. The targeting reticule appears when you move your cursor over hex
(19,4). Left-click to attack.
