Hey guys, I was having a little difficulty on the 5th mission first time round as my troops numbers were so low, and therefore decided to be a bit daring on my second attempt..
As people who have played it will know, it's the mission where you need to make it to the other side of the map with minimal casualties.
I decided to run my first wave of 4x half-tracks all across the other side of the map, using fast, using full, heavy fire howitzer and 102mm mortar fire on the hedge lines in the first field.
Two half-tracks managed to blitz across with ease with the lagging two having difficulties as they came under tank fire. I immediately sent two of my panthers to the rescue.
This is what they managed to conjure.
Just a question:
I think I'm on the last mission now (St Jean De Daye)
I have only 3 panthers (even though I had 4 surviving the last mission), and only one full platoon, on at just less than half strength. the other Platoons have no more than 10-12 guys. Does everyone start on this amount? I dont understand how the campaign unit system works. I definitely do not have enough men to take out a town!!
I am hoping that the mass rape I inflicted on the computer last mission also has consequences on his units this mission aswell!?
