Hello everyone.
A few days ago, I took my first step into tactical strategy games with CM:Final blitzkrieg.
As per requested in the game manual, I started the training campaign.
The first two mission ware self explanatory. I learned the mechanics and UI and managed to complete them without any problem.
Then I got to the third mission and thing got complected, in that mission you need to fend off an attack on a town and then counter attack a specific point on the map.
The first part of the mission start with artillery and AT tutorial, and then after troop reinforcement arrives you are told to use it either to bolster your defenses or use them for the counter attack.
After that, the tutorial tells you to sort thing out yourself.
5 hours later, I still fail to wrap my head around and strategy that works, you either fortify the reinforcement at some defensible position and see them attrition due to artillery, or send them counter attacking via different avenues that end up kill the lot of them before even 100m of the target.
As you may understand, I need some guidance as to how to undestrnd the battlefield in this kind of scenario, what to look for and how to best approach this game.
Also,any link to written or video material that could help me understand the game better would be appreciated.
Thank you all in advance.
