Think its the 4th or 5th Russian Campaign mission.
My secondary trench is getting overrun every time, that's fine as it's only guarded by 1 infantry squad and a 76mm ATG.
Second Trench has the bulk of my forces, 1x T60 4x T34s (2 '43s 2 '41s) - I didn't see the point in taking KV1s as I read the briefing about awesome new German tanks.
So I survive until reinforced - 3x T34s 2x 76mm ATGs. But now Gerry gets reinforced, 3x Brummbars and 4x Elefant tanks.
What the hell am I supposed to do against them!? I hide my reinforcments in the village whilst the Elefants engage my armour and cut through it like butter. But the AI never storms the Trench, so I never get my side shot from the Village with my reinforcments. Brummbars are bad enough, 100mm frontal armour - but a mere 30mm at the sides. Elefants have 200mm frontal armour, so I tried aiming for the gun and tracks and failed to knock out either
I called in my Artillery on the enemy troops to devestating effect, but the IL-2s don't even bother shooting at the Elefants, they just buzz around and then fly away! Poxy flyboys, real men don't fly
Anyway, any tips would be appreciated. 200mm frontal armour... I didn't even think the Germans used many Elefants, I was expecting (and fearing) meeting the Panther for the first time, maybe a Tiger, but never this
