Men of War: Condemned Heroes Guide › Essentials › Combat Tactics

Offensive Tactics

Summary

When attacking the enemy, consider several things before you start shooting:

1. Look around the map. Locate enemy positions, especially guns and tanks.
2. View the terrain. Can you use it for cover or concealment? Can you flank the enemy strongpoints?
3. Create a plan that will give your troops advantages over the enemy at specific locations on the battlefield.

Enemies are often positioned in trenches or buildings, or behind other types of cover. Check to see how much of the battlefield is visible to the enemy, and how far their weapon ranges are.

Look for weak spots. Take one trench or defensive position, and then use that as a launching point for your other defenses.

Attacking a trench can be dangerous. However, by neutralizing nearby crewed weapons and vehicles, and then taking out the trench machine guns, you can successfully accomplish this task.

TIP

Save your game early and often. Men of War: Condemned Heroes is a tough game, even on the easy level. Be sure to save your game after completing difficult tasks such as capturing trenches or destroying tanks.
