Extreme Assault Tactics - What Works Best?

[Hawk Kriegsman]

What the hell I jump in to the single most destructive issue (IMHO) to the CS community.

1: properly soften up the target.

2: Use high factor assault units (engineers, smg units, 1st line Japanese, etc).

3: Use at least 2 to 1 in terms of attacking SP's verses the defender's SPs.

4: Attack from multiple sides (opposite ones preferably).

5: If you have a high number of SPs with a good assault factor verses a low number of SPs of moderate assault factors you do not need all units disrupted. The umberical advantage can (and does) work.

6: For an example of #5 above play KKR's Big Bully. A number of Albanian units are in pillboxes. Italian engineers have a high assault factor but a crap hard attack factor. The Italians can not expect to disrupt the Albanians in the pillboxes on a rgular basis. The only way for the Italians to take the pillboxes is to assault with a large number of engineers. Try it, it works and you'll like it.

There you go Mike all summed up (again) in 6 bullet points.

Thanx!
