Best Overall Unit M26 "Pershing". The M26 is fast, has the highest amount of armor, highest armor attack. Infantry attack is normal for tanks, though. ------------------------------------------------------------- V Strategy tips Here is a list of tips on how to win thos slightly harder levels 1. Whenever possible use scouting and artillery units TOGETHER! Use the scout to find the enemy(once you do stop), then kill it with the artillery. 2. Always send your heavyest tanks to the front of your force no matter how slow they are. 3. Never go with just twelve units(when you have more than twelve) just because thats all you can fit in a squad. 4. When possible never attack in waves. They will just kill of one wave after another -------------------------------------------------------------- VI. Mission Equipment and tips Mission 1 Location: Africa 3 M3 "Stuart" 8 US Riflemen If you take the village then go in a counter-clockwise motion to the other objectives you will definitely win. When you take the village you will get reinforcements. Reinforcements consist of 3 M3's and 4 US Riflemen. Mission 2 Location: Africa 5 M3 "Stuart" 8 US Riflemen 2 US Mortar team The ammo for the Mortar team is in the middle of the central plain. You can't use the team until you get them very close to the drop. Be careful! There is 4 German Troopers gaurding it with an Opel-Blitz and a VW Kubelwagon. Once you get the ammo, though, you are ready to kick some Kraut ass! Be sure you send units through both ends of the canyon. Mission 3 Location: Africa 3 M3 "Stuart" 2 M3 "Grant" 4 US Riflemen Not much here. Just be careful at the panzer brigade camp there's alot of PzKpfwIII's there. Mission 4 Location: Africa 5 M3 "Stuart" 4 US Riflemen 2 US Mortar team You recieve 2 M7 "Priest" artillery units if you take the hill. To complete this mission go to the hill to get the artillery. Next rescue the 4 M3 "Grant" tanks. Then take and hold the town. Be prepared, the German counter-attack is heavy. Mission 5 Location: Africa 4 M3 "Stuart" 2 M3 "Grant" 8 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka 1 Willys Jeep You can really kick ass in this mission. Use this battle to gain experience. Mission 6 Location: Africa 2 M3 "Stuart" 4 M4 "Sherman" 6 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka 1 M7 "Priest" 1 Willys Jeep This is the mission that the M4 "Sherman" is introduced. When this thing comes around those Krauts better run and hide under a rock somewhere because this thing can really blow crap up! Those Germans don't get mercy 'til the PzKpfwVI "Tiger" comes along. Mission 7 Location: France 4 M4 "Sherman" 4 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka 2 US Mortar team 1 Willys Jeep This mission really buged me before I figured out how to win(all those guys on the beaches got ripped to shreads). Then it hit me. You have to travel across the beach to get to the bunkers in time (stupid me, stupid me). The rest is pretty easy. Except that Munitions Depot. Mission 8 Location: France 4 M4 "Sherman" 7 US Riflemen 1 US Bazooka 2 US Mortar team 1 Willys Jeep (Gettin' kinda repetitive huh?) This is where the "Use your scouting and artillery units together" works. Be careful an ambush is waiting for you on th southermost road half-way between your entry point and the station. It consists of, 3 PzKpfwIV "Panther" and 1 SdKfz 231. If you capture the station you get 4 M4 "Sherman" reinforcements. Oh, and one more thing. There is a US Paratrooper at the Northwest corner of the map. I still don't know how to save him. If anyone does please email me. Mission 9 Location: France 9 M4 "Sherman" 10 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka Not much here. You pretty much got it made. Mission 10 Location: France 5 M4 "Sherman" 8 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka 1 M7 "Priest" 1 Willys Jeep Not much here either. You can easily win this one. Mission 11 Location: France 4 M4 "Sherman" 2 M18 "Hellcat" 1 M8 "Greyhound" 8 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka 1 Willys Jeep This is the mission that I found that the M8 "Greyhound" can't fight for crap against enemy tanks. Also one more thing. Two of your riflemen die in the middle of that German attack as soon as you enter the mission. Mission 12 Location: France 6 M4 "Sherman" 2 M8 "Greyhound" 6 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka 2 US Mortar team 1 Willys Jeep This mission is easy(except when you attack the town, things might get a little hairy).You should only have minimal trouble. Mission 13 Location: Belgium 8 M4 "Sherman" 1 M18 "Hellcat" 10 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka 1 US Mortar team 1 Willys Jeep Tigers are everywhere! You can only stop them using your superior numbers. Mission 14 Location: Belgium 4 M26 "Pershing" 4 M4 "Sherman" 2 M3 "Stuart" 16 US Riflemen 2 M1 Heavy Cannons The M26's are finaly here. These things will shoot the crap out of everything that choses to opppose them reinforcements are also here. The northern group consists of, 1 M4 "Sherman", 2 M3 "Stuart", and 2 US Riflemen. The southern group, 3 M4 "Sherman", and 2 M3 "Stuart". Mission 15 Location: Belgium 2 M26 "Pershing" 2 M18 "Hellcat" 4 M4 "Sherman" 10 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka Easy, easy, easy. This mission is one of the easiest of all. Mission 16 Location: Belgium 5 M4 "Sherman" 2 M18 "Hellcat" 1 M8 "Greyhound" 10 US Riflemen 2 US Bazooka 2 M7 "Priest" This mission is easy as well. Artillery are really useful in this mission. Mission 17 Location: Germany* 2 M8 "Greyhound" 8 US Paratrooper After a while you get reinforcements consisting of, 4 M26 "Pershing", 2 US Riflemen, 2 US Bazooka, and 1 M40. Mission 18 Location: Germany* 3 M26 "Pershing" 4 M4 "Sherman" 2 M18 "Hellcat" 2 M8 "Greyhound" 10 US Riflemen 1 Willys Jeep This has to be the easiest mission ever! Two of your Riflemen die in the first attack. If you assist the different outposts successfully you recieve the remaining units. The HQ consists of 1 M4 "Sherman", 1 M8 "Greyhound", 4 US Riflmen, and 2 US Bazooka. The Munitions Depot consists of, 1 M4 "Sherman", 1 M18 "Hellcat", 6 US Riflemen, and 2 US Bazooka. Mission 19 Location: Germany* 4 M26 "Pershing" 3 M4 "Sherman" 1 M10 "Wolverine" 1 M8 "Greyhound" 9 US Riflemen 5 US Bazooka 2 M40 1 Willys Jeep This level is the second easiest. One problem. The M10 can't fight for crap. Mission 20 Location: Germany* 3 M26 "Pershing" 2 M18 "Hellcat" 4 M4 "Sherman" 2 M8 "Greyhound" 9 US Riflemen 1 US Bazooka 6 US Paratrooper 1 Willys Jeep 2 M40 This is an easy one too. Be sure you take your forces to the west until the village is due north of then then and only then can they move north. Then go to the Barracks. Then the warehouses. Then the railroad station. *Location is estimated If I missed anything please e-mail me. ------------------------------------------------------------ VII.Contact info If you have any queations, comments, or (hopfully not) complaints e-mail me at bearhoffman@yahoo.com.
