Well, I'm still learning the ropes in this game, but I'd be hard pressed to develop a single strategy for all situations. I do whatever METT-T (Mission, Equipment*, Time, Terrain & Troops) will allow me to (in no particular order): - I try to figure out routes where my troops will be able to best utilize bounding & overwatching from areas of cover or concealment. I usually keep them in "tight" wedge formations and usually maintain at least 180 degrees of security while overwatching. - If I suspect any anti-tank capabilities on the opposite side of a hill, I'll send in a light recon group to look over the hill etc before letting the tanks go over. - I usually focus on attacking a single side instead of having a broad front. But I'll still have at least a single platoon element on the opposite side in case I NEED firepower on that side for some reason. - I like to have at least one sharpshooter. They're excellent at keeping Anti-Tank Gun crews heads down while your tanks or mortars destroy them. - I stay loose with my mortars now. If I have a platoon getting hammered, I won't hesitate to unleash a minute + of heavy mortar fire anymore. I used to wait...and wait and wait until I caught the computer in a large group... But I've realized it likes to spread it's defense out quite a bit. That's all I can think of now. I'll think of some more things later. I should probably get back to work 8^) *Or Enemy
