Huge Op or Battle Tip

[Smashing(FGM)]

i would highly recommend the Blut Und Ehre operation (spoilers below) strategy and tactics both need to be employed very wisely. Im still playing this against Geordie. Im playing as Allies. In the first battle i pushed too far forward straight down the middle and reached the far edge of the map without much resistance, to my suprise i was flanked, i expected the germans to sit and wait and hit us at long range but i was not engaged significantly.The next couple of battles were a cat and mouse affair where we both tried to out manoeuvre each other which resulted in some spectacular tank engagements with smaller infantry fire fights which were evenly attritional i suspect.(heh).. I didnt make any ground at all, so i decided to start the next couple of battles setting up a broad front advance. I have gradually advanced with success moving and fighting from cover to cover across the whole front with infantry and tank groups behind heavy barrages of artillery where suspected enemy positions are. As soon as i started the broad front stategy i have had a much easier time advancing and have pushed the jerries gradually backwards dispite numerous large tank breakthrough attempts and without being flanked agin.
Its a monster of an op which i have been playing for nearly a year but its brilliantly designed and very enjoyable...get a good solid opponent and give it a try its awesome stuff.
