Has anyone played this operation as the Germans? I just did and it was one of the funnest Operations in the game. Has anyone managed to save and build up their armored forces? I couldn't but I can only imagine the possibilities if a person did, because theres so many nice places to hide your crack armor units. Anyways I still destroyed 46 Russian vehicles to 23 of my own and killed 122 Russian infantry to 78 of my own along with a total casualty ratio of 164:264 in my favor. I think most of those Russian infantry casualties came in the last engagement when I put all of my remaining infantry in the forest, hid them, then when the Russians got close (I should have waited till they were point blank) I started firing, crazy firefight.
