Modern War - Start Scenario hardest ever?

[TheBigRedOne]

I do remember playing around with that scenario a bit, but couldn't find a write-up for it. I do recall being somewhat taken back by how difficult it was. The key to any type of success here is to use a lot of smoke to get into position. The M-203 has a smoke round, as does the M-1 main gun round. Use the smoke to get in close, then try to light up those bunkers as much as possible. Having the small units can make success here a bit of a challenge, as with the smaller amount of turns.

Just played it again with a major loss. It's a tough one, no question. I could never pin that unit in the bunker. Took out the leader, but couldn't quite get them pinned for the assault.

The SMAW is a nice weapon. Play around with the three different loads to see which is most effective against the bunker. My M-1 struggled to do much damage with either the AT or the HE loads.
