They surely would've caused me some tank losses, had I not chosen them my primary targets the moment they appeared. Therefore I took more damage from the "next best gun" carried by the SU-76. Could SU-152 have had the same effect, perhaps with some added experience value?

I was not aware of the lack of KV-1c's in favour of KV-1s. It is interesting but would not have factored into my design.

This is again one thing I just strongly remember reading from various sources, but before making any changes I'd rely on actual sources or people like Don who check them more systematically.

The game (and reality) highly favour the defensive posture and I find it's use in scenario design a very effective method of making the AI harder to beat.

Yes, and honestly you couldn't have made the counter-attacks any bigger without making it ridiculous. While it's possible for a human player to use T-34s effectively against Tigers, the AI just can't do that on a relatively open terrain. Perhaps you could fiddle a bit with the timing and way-points of the counter-attacks, some well-placed smoke-screens, but I can't think of a single simple solution.

It sounds like your experience with the campaign was what I expected from an experienced player. I am very glad you enjoyed it!

As much as I like the game, IMO it should have more campaigns of approximately this scale. Takes enough effort to make decent separate scenarios, haven't even bothered to try making a small campaign yet...
