Even when I have masses of cheap units like base T-55's and BMP-1's, I get spammed and overwhelmed by a seemingly endless amount Skots + dismounts and masses of cheap ATGM units.
If I go straight down the main road, the offensive kinda falters half way down the map, while I keep getting nailed from the east by units coming from the AI's spawn points on the side of the map. Tried doing al ligthning raid with either ground vehicles or Mi-24's, which ended in either getting killed by units in the woods or the AA surrounding the AI's CP vehicles there.
You can use one of the Mi-24's to link up with the Polish loyalist forces at the other end of the map(one of the objectives) but when you do, you get command of those units as well, thus forcing you to split your attention between two forces getting zerg rushed by the Polish insurgents, complicated by the need of keeping your loyalist buddies' CP vehicle alive, even though they are surrounded on all sides... I reckon I might take my force east next time and push up through the forest there, see if that works, because everything i've tried so far ends up FUBAR.
