Impossible Mission Suez Crossing in MC Middle East

[tom1973]

Gentlemen,

I just bought Modern Campaigns Middle East after playing Squad Battles before.

For me, the beginner's 6 turn scenario Suez Crossing is an impossible mission. After more then 20 attempts I am going to ask here in this forum: Did anybody ever succeed playing the arabs? I always take 3 or 4 targets and eliminate most of the defending infantry and tank units, but still never have enough points even for a minor victory. After finishing a first bridge I move nearly all units on the other side of the canal and take the emplacements near the canal. After that the tanks and infantry are moving in direction of the other targets.

I tried even matches with two AIs, but the arab AI also never gains a victory and I want to understand, what I am doing wrong, before starting more complex scenarios.

I was searching a while for hints in this forums, but Modern Campaigns Middle East seems to be much less popular than the Panzer Campaigns and even less than the Campaign Serie Middle East, which apparently is not available anymore on the JTS site.

Thanks for any hint, how to gain a victory in this scenario
Tom
