Take out the tanks and move to the small crossroads ahead where you need to destroy a small squad of enemy soldiers - easy pickings. You will come across a group of tanks that need to be destroyed before the convoy can move up, which it does automatically once the way is cleared. Move your main force to the north, out of the village. That means you have to fight your way through the enemy village to the north - very easy if you followed my advice at the start of the mission. Meanwhile some german bombers spawn - don´t worry just yet, they just destroy the bridge you crossed on earlier. The initial volley of rockets will tear apart most if not all the attackers, the rest can be handled by your ground toops. As soon as it becomes active the enemy launches a massive attack in the south: You will now be demonstrated the devastating effectiveness of the soviet rocket launchers. II in the meantime - since it´s such a crappy tank you shouldn´t have any problems with that.Īfter defeating the remaining enemies in the south move into the friendly village and have one of your units go to the rocket artillery. Your own tanks should focus down the enemy Pz. While they try to rush towards the tanks hold your ground or move them back a little and let your own infantry deal with them. A nice strategy is to move in with your tanks first and let them get the attention of the enemy infantry. There is a small roadblock ahead, which shouldn´t give you too much trouble though. Move the south group into the village and take out the weak defenders inside.Īfter that´s been dealt with cross the bridge and take out any remaining infantry you come across. After taking care of these you should split up your armies in two groups: one that follows the intended path to the south, the other one moves to the north and flanks the village defenders from the back (call in at least one more tank group first). Shortly after the start of the mission some german motorcycles appear - the WORST fighting unit in the entire game. You start the mission on the east side of the map, near a small shack. Now restart the "rescue mission" - you can farm some experience for your main infantry That allows you to assign a commander for your main infrantry - I wouldn´t bother assigning someone to light tanks, since you will hardly use them after unlocking your medium tanks. Like all the campaigns, you should exit to chapter map first before you do anything.
