Tactics & Tips
- M1 Garand and M1 Carbine are most effective at medium and close range against Wehrmacht Kar98k rifles.
- Riflemen are versatile units that can deal with all kinds of threats, chose your upgrade carefully.
- Grenades are good for clearing buildings, enemies in heavy cover and against groups of enemy infantry.
- Sticky bombs can be used to disable vehicles, they are quite effective against light vehicles but it cannot destroy tanks effectively, only slow them down.
- Suppression fire available after BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle) upgrade can suppress enemy infantry squads very quickly.
- Use BAR suppression and grenades in combination to give enemy infantry squads a very nasty surprise.
- Large groups of BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle) rifleman squads are deadly against almost every other infantry group.
- Always get your Riflemen to pick up dropped Panzerschrecks as it will make your Riflemen deadly anti-tank infantry. If your Riflemen squad has a Panzerschreck, throw a sticky bomb to slow down enemy tanks and destroy it with your Panzerschreck. Bazooka, PIAT, and Recoilless Rifles aren't bad, but the Panzerschreck is the best.
