Hello everybody.
I've just started to play the Lost Victory MC in the first scenario (the river crossing) and after 16 turns I have a few questions (I play as german):
- The complete first battle has 151 turns ? Is this right ?
- Do I have to complete the 151 turns to end the battle ?
- I'm now in the turn 16 and the soviets are "morale broken" but the battle does not end. Why ?
Genarally speaking, breaking the soviets' morale is, by itself, not enough to end a battle. As I recall, you have to capture all the victory hexes and destroy the soviet HQ as well. (Some of the battles are set up so that you cannot end the battle early due to placement of 'cannot be recaptured' v hexes that are almost always taken by the soviets.)
quote:
- I need to move my mech (trucks, Stugs and half tracks) units to the right side of the river but I think I must to build a bridge first. How can I do it ?
Short answer: You can't. Long answer: For the first battle all you will get across the river is your foot units. Hint: Move your heavy units around their side of the river, and you might get some shots in at soviet units on the other side.

- I've used my engineers units fighting on the right side. Do they build the bridge ? If yes, how ?
Short answer: No, they can't build a bridge. Long answer: It takes quite a bit more than some engineer squads with demo packs to build a bridge. Your force is short on equipment, time, and men to be able to build a bridge. (Even under ideal circumstances it takes quite a bit longer than the short time an SP:WaW battle takes to put up a bridge capable of carrying heavy units such as tanks, transports, and artillery.)
quote:
- In order to achieve the complete victory must I bring my units till the edge of the (right side) map ?
To gain a DV capture as many of the v hexes as you can and destroy as many soviet units while taking as few casualties as you can. (Optimally, you want to take all the v hexes. Good luck!)
Hope that helps.
