Default Re: [WIP] Campaign - Breakout!

Finished last night.

You need to be very careful not to lose tanks due to the limited replacements. I managed to lose only 1.

Standard routine was:

1. Infantry moves forward and gets shot at until they spot the shooter(s)

2A. Infantry pops smoke, pulls back, and calls in massed arty on targets.

or

2B. Infantry engages target(s) to ensure there are no AT guns and then brings up the tanks for massed fire at the target(s).

3. Lather, rinse, repeat.

I would suggest adding a few AA guns to the scenarios that don't already have them. The P-47s were not very good at taking out tanks but a few more AA guns would add a challenge.

In the last scenario the deployment instructions are a bit confusing. One says "Deploy below this line" but there is one a few rows higher that says "Deploy behind this line". These instructions seem to conflict.

You could also reduce the player's force by 4-5 tanks since I often had several that didn't get to fire a shot in the scenario.

Thanks for making this.
