AAR: "Enjoy the War."

[Zardoz]

Oh, battle No. 3 was easy.

I dispersed a StuG battery among the infantry and that saved the day. The infantry resp. the scouts identified the russians and the StuG put them in retreat and rout-modus very easily.

In 1941 infantry alone cannot really defend against tanks at a distance of 2 or more hexes. I rumbled 2 times into russian tanks in the night and lost 2 StuGs but losses were very low.

Now I have a river crossing ...

[Wiking]

Yeah, my own infantry have to "hide with pride" in the woods or rough terrain even when they have tellermines or grenade bundles. I use smoke grenades liberally to break line of sight and get on the reverse of a slope so that when the tanks chase them, I can assault them more easily.

Good luck with the river crossing! It's my least favorite mission in this game!
