Combat Mission Black Sea - Expanding the Foothold
This is a continuation of an AAR of a quick battle that I started a while ago.
The crossing of the bridge was chronicled in a previous YouTube video. I have a significant part (almost the entire maneuver forces) holding a tiny foothold on the far side of the river.
The heavy use of smoke from the Bradley fighting vehicles bought my troops some time to re-organize before moving forward.
The way ahead was a mid-size town with plenty of trees and bushes. Time was running out (I accidentally set up the quick battle for just 45 minutes) and I really wanted to push towards the final objective.
Side note: I had to leave a Bradley IFV behind, watching the near side of the bridge. A Russian detachment of infantry was causing some trouble and I needed by interior lines clear. Yeah, that ATGM is coming out of his paycheck!
Moving into the town was intense. Fortunately there were not enemy armor and the incredible firepower of my armor dominated the battlefield. I became a bit lousy in executing my movement through the town (lost one Bradley and a couple of dismounts) but the clock was ticking.
After the Revolution against British domination, no other event has been seen so important and decisive for the American Nation as the Civil War, fought from 1861 to 1865.
One of the most important battles of this conflict was without any doubt Gettysburg, fought between the Army of the Potomac (Union) and the Army of Northern Virginia (Confederacy) and lasted from July 1 – 3, 1863. General Lee commanding the Confederate forces sought the chance to ease the pressure on the city of Vicksburg, besieged by the unionists. Instead, his was defeated by Maj. Gen. George Meade, halting the invasion of Pennsylvania and forcing his army to retreat back to Virginia.

That's right. If you have used PB to insert a link anywhere, that is considered 3rd party. What you will see is the above image instead of your image. If you click the image it will eventually take you back to PB with many adverts.
This came without warning! The images are still there but cannot now be seen within posts. Imagine all the posts affected throughout the internet. Years, millions of images. All those "How to" and tutorials will not be easy to follow.
This affects me/us as I have used PB until the end of last year to post images. I have posted many images. Imagine what it would take to repair the broken links by transferring the images! You will unfortunately see the above image in many posts.
The solution?
Use imgur or another free host? Use another service? Use this forum? All have pros and cons.
Any help advice friends?...
