Which side to play scenarios from for biggest challenge?

Post by Nox0s »

If anyone who's played all (or most) of the scenarios included in the game would like to post which side to play from for the greatest challenge I'd really appreciate it [&o] (whichever you remember at least)

I would hate to ruin my experience of one by taking the wrong side and spoiling it for myself ;) Obviously some mention which side is recommended but not all.

Oohh I can't remember know. I know the smaller scenarios playing as the German airborne I loved. Infact I mainly played as the Germans in most of the scenarios. Again though I'd start with the smaller scenarios that i think last a couple of days or so. Playing a low unit scenario over the decent period of time really makes the game shine and brings the best out of it. I do remember the Narvak scenario being difficult but that i think was a user made one. Also the scenario where you have to try and slow the German advance, was great playing as the Allied in that one which is unusual being the defender against games against an AI as most of the time your best being the attacker as the AI is best in defense.

COTA had my favourite scenarios out of all the games. I will purchase the expansion when it comes out where I never bothered with the Arnhem one.

Give "Spartans at the Pass" a try as Germans. I just played it twice (with the BFTB beta expack) and got clobbered.

Good luck and welcome!
