Flashpoint Latvia Episode 7 - Steel Beasts ProPE - Hit and Run
Past noon and its after taste of half-eaten food. It's almost like you can feel the exhaustion and dropping morale of my German soldiers. Determined to end the day with a solid foothold on Shilovo, a renewed attack on the town is carefully planned.

A panoramic view of the operations in the north of Shilovo. My troops gained a substantial foothold on the town.
