I wanted to share this tactical note I made for my own use. In the before mentioned video, I have a T-72 tank Company and I am to assault an American position (OBJ Leninade). During numerous tryouts, I consistently failed on that assault until I read the fine print of a document entitled "Soviet Tank Company Tactics" (available from a number of sources, please Google it).
In the scenario, my critical error was how I positioned my support by fire (SBF) position.

OBJ Leninade and how to take it. Note the "bad SBF" and how close it is to the enemy tanks. The better alternative was to have my SBF mission some 1 km farther away from the Americans. |

The American M1s had a hard time with all the six T-72 gun muzzles firing at them. In this tryout, the tanks at the SBF position suffered just one mobility loss. |
-The SBF position should have a field of fire preferably away from the axis of assault.
-The SBF position (as with any battle position) should make the best use of the weapon system's range.
And now, please watch my video. :)
