The mission is a counterattack with Syrians as attacking force. Israel holds tow jeeps, Shilkas and cobras in reserve and ambush one platoon Merkava. Syria start will all units on the table.
Turn 1
The Syrians push forward and move one mounted unit towards the left flank objective. One Merkava is destroyed at short range by the T72s. The Israeli Cobras arrive and one of their tow missiles destroys a T72. two more Merkavas appear from ambush and Israel fight's back with tanks and infantry, destroying a T72 and two T62s and a BTR. A shilka and a few BTRs are bailed.
Turn 2
Syrian forced push forward and position to make an assault with the T62s. Air support arrives but fail to hit the Merkava it was aiming for. The assault results in all three T62s getting bailed, stopping the assault. All T72 shells bounce off the Merkavas. The Shilkas fire combined with the stagger team destroy the Cobras.
Israeli TOW jeeps arrive, blowing up the Syrian Shilkas. Another handful of vehicles are destroyed by the combined fire from Merkavas and infantry
Turn 3
The Syrian infantry push forward to support the fight against the dug in Israeli infantry, while the T62s approach the Merkavas. The BTR infantry on the left flank moves out of their vehicles and take up position by the second objective. Their transports and destroy three Tow jeeps with their autocannons. One Merkava is Bailed, but remounts at the start of its next turn.
Now the Shilkas arrive and destroy one BTR. Realizing the threat at the second objective the Merkvas and the M113 transports move into better positions, while opening up on the tanks ahead. Another two T72s and one of the T62 companies are finished off.
Turn 4
Realizing the dug in Israeli infantry is to hard to assault all Syrian units try to re position to better protect the second objective. A side aimed shot from the stagger team destroys a Merkava.
The Merkavas destroys a T72 and reduce the T62 to just two tanks and the HQ. The M113 reduce the first infantry platoon to three teams, barley keeping them alive.
Turn 5
With few weapons to take on the Merkavas from the front, only side shots from the slow fire ring T62 can attempt to destroy the Merkavas. But all shot misses. The rest of the army re position towards the second objective.
To prevent the Syrans from taking the objective at the beginning of turn 6, one Merkava moves up towards the objective and assault one of the infatry teams. With no weapons to fight the Merkava at close range, the Infantry has to pull off. However, the Tanks flanks are now exposed.
Turn 6
The battle goes into closer quarter with exposed tanks, combined tank fire and stagger missiles destroy two Merkavas. The M113 are reduced by massed fire from the remaining BTRs.
With only two tanks, a M113 and the dug in infantry left, the odds are getting bad for the Israelis. One Merkava is hitting the T62 HQ twice, but getting a double bail result in the T62 formation still on the table. The Second Merkava bounce its shots against the T72s
Turn 7
The last two Merkava's are destroyed by the stagger team and the aircraft, thus the Israelis breaks off having only the infantry still on the table. Each Syrian formation was reduced to minimum,but all three formations remain at the end of the battle.
Result; minor Syrian victory
