Just re-installed the game after 3 years but I'm really struggling here. I played all the tutorials to get back into the swing of it but that first solitaire scenario 'Guards Counterattack'... I just can't make any progress playing as the Soviets. I always enjoyed the urban warfare battles and don't recall them being so difficult. Tried using lots of smoke, all-out charges, sneaky end arounds I need some help to get me kick-started.

Well, I'm using Enhanced DVRN so I don't know how helpful my comments will be. But looking at the scenario, it occurs to me that the Soviets have some very good attack options.

Here is a link to some general tactics and guidelines I posted 6 years ago. See if they help you:

Yes! Marginal victory

Your tips were very useful, especially about rallying. I also realised I was paying far too much attention to the unmodified hit chance.

Thanks, now I'm getting somewhere
