Played with EA on.

Allies need to be aware that the two main bridges can be blocked by destroyed units preventing them from scoring any victory.

Restrictive terrain that allows two avenues of attack. Allies should take care and take their time. Allied forces are numerous but the terrain forces high density of their units. If you like a killing game with limited options then this game is for you.
