Russians build faster and cheaper.

That is when you should use your numbers to attack the spread German units.

Early Game

Right after you begin, start seizing the nearby terrain with your engineers.

Enlist 2-3 units of conscripts and one more unit of engineers, and one of the conscripts again.

Send them in large numbers to seize the terrain, including behind enemy lines.

At this stage of the game, the Victory Points are not that important.

PC

The most important thing right now is to spread the German forces and have them surrounded everywhere.

Good weapons against the Heavy Machine Guns are Molotov’s cocktails which will force their crew to change positions.

Develop flamethrowers with your engineers and start buildingGuards Rifle Anti-Tank Command, and roll theM3A1into the battlefield from there.

PC

Use this to cut off the way behind you as you attack at the front.

Mid Game

The general strategy remains unchanged.

With a bit of luck, you should be able to get a German Heavy Machine Gun.

PC

Create one, or two, teams and combine them with the Machine Gun for support.

Take proper care of your M3.

It should remain in constant movement.

PC

To counter them, developAT grenades.For conscripts.

It isn’t the best anti-tank weapon out there, but it should do against the StuG and trucks.

Otherwise, use the ZiS cannons from the Guard Rifle Command.

PC

The problem, at this point, may be The Elephants, the Tigers or Panthers.

Should the need arise, build the last building and deploy the SU-85.

Also a Katjusha Rocket Launcher may come in handy.
