Hint: Knowledge is power. Use your recon vehicles to probe enemy positions,
then engage the opposition with your heavy armor.
Hint: Use your weapons' different ranges to set "kill zones." Deploy TOW
Antitank Guided Missiles to the rear, place tanks a bit forward, sprinkle the
area where you wish to engage the enemy with mines, and then let loose when
the enemy arrives. It is the synergy of multiple weapon systems simultaneously
engaging the enemy that wins battles.
Hint: Place your less capable tanks (such as T-72s) on the reverse (that is,
opposite) side of the hill from an enemy advance. The enemy won't be able to
see the tanks until they crest the hill, and then the T-72s can pour shells
into the enemy at close range--hopefully negating any technological advantage
the enemy has. That's the theory, but it didn't work too well for the Iraqis
at Medina Ridge.
Hint: Use the right weapon system for the right job. Helicopters are great tank
busters, but are vulnerable to thin-skinned antiair vehicles. Use tanks to
clear the antiair vehicles before employing your choppers. The helicopters are
also good at popping up from behind ridges (using the Set Helicopter Height
option), shooting a couple of missiles, and then diving for cover before the
enemy can return fire.
