Stuck on counter attack - market garden

[vinnie8]

Hi all,

Heeeeelp !! I'm stuck on counter attack - market garden. I don't quiet understand the 'units carry over' concept. I believe you have to play each scenario in turn in order to carry units over to the next mission.

I seem to begin with a handful of troops and no artillery ... I know Arnhem had outnumbered paras but it just seems impossible ?? I'm usually pretty good at getting through the missions so I don't think it's just my skill level.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

It's ok ... I did it. Started again from the first mission being careful with my forces. Getting two pints to elite level was one of the biggest advantages as you can clog up the bridge with wrecked armour.

Damn, you're pretty good! I too restarted the campaign cause I was having difficulties. But now, even with a bigger force, I still managed to lose the scenario...How did you place your units? I always start with leaving the Vickers in their original positions, 3 piats at the front of the bridge, 1 Bren squad in the northeast sandbags, the motor in the North west sandbags and the rest of my forces into the surrounding buildings away from the bridge on the West and East side. But my forces just end up getting out numbered and picked off since idk of a good way to concentrate firepower... wat do? O.O
