Human wave attacks/Camouflage

[coe]

In some scenario with Allies at 200% I

fought off an American human wave attack.

curious though, the Russians did waves, so

did the Japanese, and the accounts are

true against the Polish at Falaise, the

Germans just kept coming and coming and

getting cut down.

I've never heard of any of the Western Allies

doing such kind of assaults, or did they?

Other question: were different nations better at camouflage than others (or different

types of troops)? Would that be hard to

model?

Look no further than the D-day landings, my friend.

IMHO, this tactic was not commonly used due to the western powers' public sensitivity to casualties and availability of other means of taking out defenders (arty, air). However, sometimes it's the only way....

On the topic of camouflauge...

I have read many accounts aboit Germans getting ambushed and destroyed by Russian forces, who not only were masters at "bonding with the earth itself" as Germans called it, but also to traverse seemingly unpassable terrain like heavy forests and swamps to emerge on the German flanks. I hope this is modeled.
