Do you guys have any tips on how to properly support your tanks with infantry, when playing as Soviets?

1. They have no APCs.
2. The APCs they do get later on cannot hold twelve men
3. I don't like putting trucks on the front line since they go up in smoke if you look at them wrong.

So far I've been using cavalry to spot for my tanks with tanks doing all the killing, and let the infantry run around in the woods or built up areas. Killing things here and there. But I think they should get a better work-out. So I've been thinking about replacing the cavalry with KV-2 tanks to haul the troops around. But then I won't have my expendable scouts. So I was wondering if there are any other ways to keep your troops moving.

Hi,

Soviet Tank Desant troops fit perfectly on T-34's. They are not that heavily armed but they have armour backup <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
