difficulty attacking as Soviets in Moscow 42

difficulty attacking as Soviets in Moscow 42
I am having difficulty attacking as the Soviets in the Moscow 42 PzC title. Most units are rated D morale, with exceptions such as the Siberians who muster a C morale rating.

Things I have tried in the getting started scenario:

1) Focusing on artillery/mortar fire on a particular hex. The Germans rarely disrupt.

2) Moving stacks of 2-3 Soviet battalions adjacent to German units in hopes artillery will disrupt so infantry can assault. (example: Ski battalions). I find the Germans are able to disrupt at least 1 battalion on their turn.

3) I realize the Soviet units strengths are the assault values, but it seems you must use direct fire with them to be able to land a disruption on German units. Is it bad to use direct fire with Soviet infantry units in general?

4) Lastly I noticed that Volcano's Man alternate scenario values are being used with the newer titles. I noticed "alternative assault resolution" is not checked by default. I was wondering if this was by design choice.

Any advice on Soviet attack strategies would be greatly appreciated.
