Roadblock at Hondeghem. A Battlegroup Blitzkrieg AAR.

This is a battle we played on november 02nd, 2019, for playtesting my own BEF Campaign centered on the actions of “K” battery, 5th Royal Horse Artillery. It is a 3-scenario campaign which I will publish somewhere soon. This game is scenario 1.
This is 08:15 AM, may 27th, 1940. Major Robert Rawdon Hoare, battery “K” 5th Royal Horse Artillery commander. His battery (modernized 18/25 pdr guns) has been ordered to set up blocking positions over route D161 at the town of Hondeghem. Captain Brian Teacher has deployed “F” troop (half-battery, 4 pieces) covering two roadblocks. The only infantry support comes from inexperienced searchlight men from 5th battery/2nd Searchlight regiment.
It is expected that the full force of 6th Panzer Division come attacking this way. The 5/RHA Battery must resist until some reinforcements in the form of carriers & Vickers MKVI light tanks of the 1st Fife & Forfar Yeomanry come to the rescue.
