One other question. Is it a good idea to send out 'cheap' recon units ahead of your main force? I've usually been sending cheap units like jeeps and half tracks ahead of my main force. These units usually get wasted by enemy fire, but its a bit useful because it forces the enemy to reveal their location. I've used this tactic with 'limited' sucess. Does anyone else do this or have any other advice on how to employ this tacitc?

Awesome. Thanks for the quick replies. The AI seems to be much more smart in CMBB as well. In CMBO they were very predictible but in CMBB they seem to use better tactics and use the terrain much more to their advantage. Makes for a much more challenging game. I love it, since I thought in CMBO the AI was far too predictable.

Hey everyone. I'm a vetran CMBO player, but I just picked up CMBB and had a few questions. 1. I'm finding that the same tactics that I used sucessfully in CMBO just plain don't work in CMBB. I am especially having a hard time trying to play against the Russian Partisans with light armor as their anti tank rifles just lay waste to my lightly armored units, and they seem to be able to hide very well so I don't know where the fire is coming from. I keep thinking that the partisans should be easy to take on since they are only rebels right? WRONG! Any sites that I can go to to hone my strategy skills in this game? 2. Where is a good place to go to find other players who want to play online either PBEM or TCP/IP? Thank you in advance. I've been lurking these forums for awhile and there seems to be a very nice community here. :cool:
