Help on Red Star Smolensk scenario

Post by Kinwolf »

Hi,

I am on Red Star Smolensk scenario where I need to defend smolensk and 4 secondary objectives, but I am getting trounced no matter what I do. Heck, I'm usually losing the first secondary objectives at turn 3!!! And I see no weakness in their attack where I might concentrate a counter-attack to get back that objectives.

Can anyone recommend what strategy they used to slow down the German advance and win this scenario?

Hmm been a while since I playes it but you can check out a very nice AAR from Best how he did that scenario here viewtopic.php?f=373&t=97544&start=40
Just scroll down a bit and Smolensk is there.
