HMGs are your major weapons until wave 11 or so when German tanks start coming in.To build up a supply beforehand, use the start-wave-early capability (and be ready) on early waves. Manpower will be precious in the last few waves when you’re dealing with German armor and flamer-251s and losing lots of units.

The UI indicates the routes from which the attacks will come (and often specifies whether they will include infantry and/or vehicles) before each wave-it is essential that you pay attention to that, but bear in mind that, especially in later waves, incoming forces will sometimes get to the map-edge and then move laterally to approach from a different direction.There are 17 attack “waves” on the bridge and there appears to be some variation in them from one playthrough to the next, so I can’t provide a step by step, but here are some tips that should be useful: This mission uses part of the Faceoff at Rostov map. I’m sure there’s some way to win it, but given the way that Relic wrecks its own product, I just can’t be bothered to keep updating these things. I’ve included the old, now-outdated writeup below in case the reader wants to try it anyway. LMG grenadiers in particular seem insanely overpowered, and Panzer IVs also seem way too difficult to kill, with the result that the retreat to the bridge in wave 13 (Panzer IVs, 251s, LMG-grens, both sides) ends in swift Russian annihilation. Update 5 Sept 2022: This mission is no longer reliably winnable on Hard level and probably should be considered “broken.” It seems that the devs, since my last writeup on this mission (this is almost always the reason for these breakages) have tinkered with unit characteristics, strengthening Germans relative to Russians.
