Bootcamp_2 Combined Assault Tactics - Red Victory

Commander; your motorized column has stopped near a village where enemy movement has been detected. The leading infantry has dismounted and is ready for the attack. Unfortunately we don't have much information on the enemy forces located in the village so a close cooperation between the infantry and the supporting armor is crucial. Tactical Tips: -Do not commit your armor early and never use them as recon vehicles into the unknown. That's the infantry's job. -Do not bunch up infantry and tanks closely as they will be very inviting targets. Do not place them too far either. Try to maintain a distance ideal for tank-infantry cooperation. -Never isolate your tanks on terrains with low LOS. -As a leader try your best to spot enemy positions with your binoculars. -Suppress the enemy defenses and use your mobility to outflank them. Do not use apparent approach angles as they are likely to turn out killing zones designed by the enemy. -Do not use roads close to the enemy. They might be mined. -Do not deploy smoke prematurely. The timing of smoke is very crucial in maneuvers. -Sometimes moving fast is a better option than returning fire; sometimes not. There are no simple answers on the battlefield. -Always load AP rounds before ending your turn if there is a risk of encountering enemy armor; so your tanks will opportunity fire the correct shell on the highest risk target. Do not forget to switch to HE rounds against soft targets.
