February 22nd 1940
Following the fall of the Mannheim line, the entire Army of the Isthmus is in disarray, trying to retreat up north to find better defence positions. Although it took the Soviets 3 months and hundreds of thousands of souls, they achieved a breakthrough and are now trying to race to Helsinki. The enemy infantry is no match for us, especially since they use tactics from 30 years ago. Still, the combined power of their heavy artillery and air support does not allow us to concentrate enough forces to stop the breakthrough. The enemy supplies are being harassed by our lads that stayed behind to wage guerrilla warfare, but that’s not enough. The enemy is confident that they will be at the capital's doorstep by the end of the month.
Your objective will be to infiltrate an area recently taken over by the Soviets. Therefore, it is full of enemy activity, but the main force is yet to come. You are to destroy valuable enemy equipment - heavy long-range artillery scattered around the area. Some are heavily defended, and some are well hidden in towns and villages. Your second objective will be to attack a battered convoy that local guerrillas recently attacked, it is full of heavy tracked vehicles, and High Command wants us to take over at least one KV series tank. You must finish the objectives before the main Soviet contingent arrives; otherwise, prepare for a fighting retreat.
Mod Preset:
WE ARE PLAYING WW2 WITH A NEW MODPACK NEXT WEEK, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT MODPACK
WE ARE ALSO USING ACRE SO PREPARE YOURSELF MENTALLY
Additional Objective:
Radio Stations and NKVD Officers can call in small quantities of nearby reinforcements and air support. It is advised to eliminate them to proceed to the last objective. You will be briefed on how to find them. The enemy also recently deployed units from Siberia. Watch out for them, they are elite units that know how to fight under those conditions.
