FM/BG-1106.V1.01 - Isolation of the objective
Isolation prevents the enemy from reinforcing or retreating. This can be achieved through:
- Positioning heavy weapons to cover likely escape routes
- Pre-plotting artillery on fall-back routes
- Using deception, such as leaving a gap to bait retreat
Isolation is not always perfect, but should be attempted as thoroughly as possible using recon and terrain advantage.
