This campaign appears to have a branched tree. How do you unlock the other 2 scenarios?

"The two extra scenarios depict Operation Mars, another Soviet offensive to eliminate the Rzhev Salient, and Operation Iskra, with the goal of opening a permanent land corridor to the besieged city of Leningrad. Victory here puts the player back onto the main campaign path."

Basically a major victory at Stalingrad gives you the standard cam path which is one scn more. A minor victory there gives you the detour via Mars, Iskra, but with overall one scn less.

Well, i dont satisfy with minor victory, thats why i still didnt play mars or iska scenario after 3 runs. Beside, major victory in Stalingrad is nearly.... auto archived without serious effort (3rd diff).
Should we have choices in campaign map ? Like PC. So we can increase the value of replay ?

Which means trucks. The Partisans are rather flimsy and dont stand any chance against any unit whatsoever. So move them from forest to forest, searching for Wehrmacht trucks that wont fight back.g

This was a tough one for sure, and while the partisans are brittle to say the least, they can also be used to pick off a German unit that has been worn down by regular troops and is at strength 1 or 2............. I actually did this to capture a secondary objective!

It was routinely used for infantry support when the enemy lacked the means to drive it away and my goodness did it ever perform.

It should be noted however, that these US halftracks appear armored, but that 6mm armor was barely able to withstand rifle caliber bullets, and for that reason, they were nicknamed "purple heart boxes" by the GI's that rode in them
