Terek is brutal

Unity of Command lets you replay the epic conflict that was the Stalingrad Campaign of World War II. In this turn-based game of strategy and cunning, observe how opportunity leads the German army to advance recklessly into the steppes of southern Russia. And as the story unfolds, join the Soviet campaign to repel the invaders... As these legendary battles play out on the hex board, the tension of decision making and difficulties of conducting operations on a massive scale emerge. Command armies and fronts in maneuver warfare, thrust and encircle, capture cities and cross continents; but never, ever forget to watch your supply lines. The Red Turn expansion ads a gigantic Soviet expansion centered on the Kursk campaign.

Terek is brutal

Post by robc04_1 »

I didn't think the Axis campaign was too hard until Terek. Up until now I have 2 brilliant victories (Kharkov and Stalingrad) and 3 decisive victories (Voronezh, Case Blue, Edelweiss). Although Stalingrad struck the most fear into me, specially when the Soviet reinforcements started pouring in I actually got that one on my first try. So far for the life of me I can't get the decisive victory. I always fall one turn short and get the standard victory. I did lose a couple times when I tried some unconventional methods. I'm not sure if I will ever get this one without getting some extremely lucky die rolls.

Wouldn't you know it but a couple tries after I posted this I finally got the decisive victory. I was limping into the last objective and out of supply, but I made it. Luckily that scenario didn't have a lot of units or a lot of turns, so replaying it wasn't too painful. I think this leads me to my biggest complaint about the game. I think I will start a new thread on that one because I'm hoping it generates some discussion as I am interested in hearing what others think. I will add a link here after that thread is created: tm.asp?m=3015503
