The Syrian operation, code-named as Badr, was aimed to retake the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, which the Syrians lost in the 1967 Six-day war.InGolan ’73, you will command highly mechanized forces and maneuver them across the rocky terrain of the Golan Heights. Unlike previous volumes where rugged terrain was more simply modeled for its impact on armor and infantry, this volume highlights a variety of natural and manmade terrain barriers that pose the appropriate combat challenge to the modern mechanized forces, such as differentiating the impact of river versus wadi or rugged mountain terrain versus escarpment, and accounting for the impact of the strongpoints and massive anti-tank barriers along the Purple Line. Both sides must prepare an aggressive plan to overcome these physical barriers.Each side faces challenges organizationally as reflected by the asymmetry of the unit size and the difficulties presented by the terrain of the battlefield. You may find it particularly difficult to maintain unit integrity when combat results disarrange formations from maintaining superior geographical position versus the enemy.Battle-specific events include Operation Dugman 5, Electronic Warfare, Counterbattery Fire, Lt. Zvicka Greengold, the Syrian FROG-7 missile strike and more. Can you punch through and cross the Jordan as the Syrian commander. Can you stem the tide until reinforcements arrive allowing you to counterattack as the Israeli counterpart?
