Hey there ToW players!
Having played tutorial and read the manual carefully, I seem to know most of stuff how gameplay works, but I'm having trouble with my first Poland campaign (want to play chronological of ww2) - it's perhaps the hardest one, don't ya think?
I've read faq of ToW on the other post - very informative, I'm trying to use all the tricks, but still everything goes nasty in battle with awful casualties of mine (those german panzers 2 and especially the 38 czeck model and nasty 75mm PIV really own me. Need to really work on pause and micromanaging I guess. So I'm asking you put all the tips and best mission unit compositions of Poland campaign and strategies, thx!
Now I play on veteran level (for realistic play of course) and I'm kinda stuck at mission 2 - rising tide. My composition - 2 AT inf squads + 2 inf squads with 1 browning mg each, 2 bofors arty, 3 7pt light tanks (best Polish tanks I think) + 1 20 mm tankette. Of course I put all the best skilled men (best gunners and drivers I have + put reserve of skilled gunners in inf squads to replace killed arty men).
I deploy on the hill slope (mission 2) facing german 4 arty hill with 2 bofors in center, 2 tanks on each flank with infantry rushing to perform covering fire and defend my hill. I put my 2 valuable AT riflemen close nearby in hide.
The thing is I can't seem to defeat those german paks36 soon enough and I get crushed on both flanks by panzers.
Looking forward to your advice and tips, thx in advance!
