Hey all.
I dont usually do this but I'm asking for help on a mission.. The last Russian mission which I think is called bratslav something, you have to clear a town then score more points than NATO, but here is where my problems start, I have no quality MBT's available, a total of 4 hind a's, 9 tank destroyers and 4 squads of inf, against scores of leopard 2's, Abrams, rise pattons, and amx 30s, tow armed lynxes, not to mention around 20 marders armed with milan atgms, filled with grenadiers, arty the works, I have no SAMs, no aa in general shitbox Russian tanks? How is it possible?? Iv tried everything?
Thanks

Use your shitty tanks to soak damage whilst you fire lots of ATGMs at them? I don't know, kind of hard to say without seeing your deck.

Thats the thing. In that particular mission the deck is locked, t62+obr72, and t64b,(6 of these) and 9 malatukas are all the mechanized units I can get, and there is not enough tanks to throw away, not that it matters, none of the main guns can penetrate the sides of a lep 2 anyway

Use the ATGMs on the T64bs and the Malyutkas...

p.s the rockets will kill the Leo2s

I can't explain it really well, but it just doesn't work.. Low acc missiles just fly off everywhere, tanks get stunned by there arty, choppers get owned by everything on the way to hit the arty, outnumbered 5 to 1 and your on the offensive, it just doesn't work,

I haven't played the single player campaign beyond mission three so I cannot really help you.

Why don't you go on the defensive at the start? Use your helicopters to cut off his resupply (how many reinforcement zones does he have?) Then when you have killed a lot, attack the town? Maybe look at the map and ponder for awhile.

Good luck!

Thanks man,
Unfortunately the mission is to take the town in 15 mins, then score as much points as NATO within 20 minute of taking the town, NATO start with 4000 points so it's offense all the way

Here's how I did it:

Helicopters used to sweep tanks from main road until I started finding AA. I had lots of good Hind variants.

Then a thunder run with all tanks + AA vehicles to the centre town, tool a slight detour left to kill their arty, then fell back (still by the left side) killing some units on the way back.

That made me ahead in points. I just ran to my initial zone and defended with everything I got.

I won by a VERY small margin.

Hope it helps.

But how did you get aa or choppers?? I have unlocked all the hind modles and about 3 aa units, not to mention plenty of tank modles but I cant use them for some reason? I'm not sure if it's a bug/glitch

The only units you can use in that mission are the units you safed (evacuated) in the mission before, if i recall correctly. And maybe units you unlocked just in the mission.
