*lol* Nothing is more frustrating than the "soft" vehicles that just won't die. Watching a tank main gun round hit a truck (or soft AA vehicle) and see "1 casualty" pop up drives me nuts - especially when the same 75mm round hitting - oh say a T-34 - results in one brewed up T-34 with 5 roasted crew.

I also hate AA guns. Loathe them. The AI always seems to have them in fearsome quantities, and even worse is the way they can wreak (admittedly short term) havoc on your AFVs after breaking through the enemy's lines. I always when I hear the inevitable "thump-thump-thump" of 37mm/40mm AA guns as appear out of nowhere to engage and all too frequently destroy my leading AFVs or recon vehicles. I've learned the hard way to try and bait them into exposure with strafing ground attack aircraft (spotter planes are invariable shot down) and then pound them out of existence with artillery and mortars - often before I even move my first units.
