Re: What is your favourite weapon? (WW2 only)

Lee Enfield .303 rifle. Best thing going since the Plezier Mauser. Makes the Jerries keep their heads down till the Gurkhas can go to work with their kukris.

Re: Bringing down a concrete bridge.

You give an engineer unit an order to assault a space. But don't bother, it doesn't work on a concrete bridge. It will breach a wooden bridge, which is also sometimes useful.
