RE: Tips from the Frontline
Great DAR! I agree with McIvan, you gotta lean to the side of more infantry. I find armour, due to it's nature, more of a YAHOO!! / OHH CRUDD!! unit. Mostly due to the fact that it is either in play or dead, there is no in between. Infantry on the other hand can absorb damage and continue to fight on even after taking some serious casualties.
Der K. brings up a good point as well, in that if you don't get to the flag first, you had better be prepared to dig the other guy out. This means some form of HE to soften the enemy up, smomething with smoke for the inevidible open ground crossing, your infantry arriving at the jump off point in good order so no time is wasted, and a good plan "A" because things are gonna be tense for a few turns and you have to know what you are doing as well as a good plan "B" and "C" as well as "D".
Agrain, great write up, looking forward to the next one.
