WW3 Team Yankee
Beqaa Valley Update

WW3 Team Yankee: Lebannon 1982

The NUTS group's latest campaign action featured yet more fighting in the Beqaa Valley of Lebannon. An Israeli Reserve Armor force faced off with a large Syrian Armor force along the Yanta - Rashayaa highway.

The Israeli force was optimized for tank killing, with extra TOW missile units added, but their armor included reserve Sho't tanks, more vulnerable to the Syrian armor.

Despite the massive Israeli firepower, the Syrians managed to push them back, halting the Israeli thrust on Yanta.

An excellent game, very close and it came right down to the wire.
