Huntingboy, one of mine was B. Willis (Bruce Willis) XD. And runerocker, it's actually under 6 and you won't get arty or planes except for the occasional blitz arty whcih can be up to 20 shells (fun...). You're getting there Notlad. Try experimenting with strategies until you get something really good. I actually got 20k points off of something I just left on my computer unmonitered for several hours. Also... get brigadier general rank as quickly as possible, don't even worry about anything until you get it. The last stand starts you off with 50+ points right in the beginning and you can set up your strategy right in the beginning giving you a huge range of options to survive hundreds to thousands of waves.
Holy S@#%! I have had so many arty and planes and bombs its not even funny. I think i may be on the top bombs recieved and top arty shells recieved of all time, maybe very close to the top. That is... if I survive.
Gyroscope... you have to ranger train them until they have above 50 and then stick them in a bunker, gunners get a bonus in bunkers. After it starts killing blitz waves in 10 seconds flat, you'll see what lukediewalker means.
Dolomite. The guys that are promoted to officers are NCO's or Non-Comissioned Officers. This basically means they will become an officer with full officer rights when they get back and are promoted by the general.
Buy 1 engineer, 3 special ops, 1 medic and 1 officer. Make a bunker and a trench on both sides of the bunker. Place 3 sets of mines in the middle and stick your special ops and engineer in the trenches. Stick the medic and the officer behind the bunker. Upgarde everyone but the officer and the med with BAR and now if you want to, buy more guys. I can survive with just these guys up to 4 or 500 kills
Ok, guys... this game is supposed to be challenging. The tactical points are fine, this makes it so you actually have to use strategy instead of just spamming special ops with BARs
