Pointers for a newb

Unread postby Broletariat90 » Sat Aug 03, 2013 6:00 am

Hello all! I just started playing the game within the last 2 days. I've managed to make it past the first 2 battles of German and Soviet Campaign. I do admit it took me a while to even get that far. But I think I'm getting the idea of punching holes into enemy lines with armor and then encirclement. Any other tips or suggestions ? I'd really like to make it through each campaign. And I have to say, even losing can be fun, this game really makes you think and analyze every little bit you do. :D

Yeah, if you're playing the main game Stalingrad campaign, 2nd Kharkov which starts the campaign is actually one of the hardest scenarios. I'd suggest you search the forums for gameplay tips, there's a lot of information available here. Also be sure to get Red Turn if you don't have it yet, it roughly doubles the scenarios available and gives you a new campaign and some great single scenarios.
