![]() If they destroy that building, set up the HMG (or its replacement) in the next building toward the Russian base-in general, the farther forward you can go, the more time you will buy. The CPU-Russians can also be very persistent and tenacious in attacking your #3 position, which is at a key crossroads-type site. Russian tanks roll in at 9-13 minutes (the exact time depending on factors I don’t fully understand) so try to have a few mines laid on approach paths by then. ![]() Occasional blizzards bring the fog of war very close and impair your units’ range and firing accuracy. Spam bunker-HMGs when you get to 100 pop cap. Then flamer 251s, grens, and more mortars. Then a mortar squad or halftrack, near the church. Then 4 Paks, two in cover S of the church, two against the S side of the hut occupied by your #4 HMG. ![]() You will need some flexibility on this mission, but one strategy that can work is to bring in four HMGs to start, and put them in 1) the building beside the left muni point, 2) the building S of the left fuel point, then asap (when no enemy in sight) the church, 3) the building NE of the left fuel point, 4) the small hut across the street and SE from the last-mentioned building. This one is probably still winnable most of the time, though it takes longer than it once did, and requires a slightly different strategy than the one I posted here a couple of years ago. Some German ToW missions are now (or have always been) unwinnable on General others are winnable only sometimes. The recent nerfage of MG42s and other universal and mission-specific changes by the devs have made it overall much more challenging to win ToW missions as Germany on General (Hard) difficulty level, even though these missions were already heavily biased against Germany. This was once a relatively easy 2v2 co-op for the Germans, based on the usual, simple combo of HMGs then Pak-40s then mortars and grenadiers at your three key points (two left VPs and fuel point in between). Mission: Oka River The MG42, once the cornerstone of German defense, is now heavily nerfed, often fails to suppress units directly in its field of fire, and has a very long reaction/setup time.
