just to see what would happen i did 5 trenches few mines and only officers. no fire support. it takes about 3 minuts for the first kill then another three to kill off the other officers. killed all the german ones and sent my last two guys over the top in the last trench and wouldnt ya know it.. BOOM! a mine takes 'em out
i can get a huge picket line setup but when i finally get my engineer i have like 12 guys and were close to being wiped out and whenever i get an engineer early i get tactical points too slowly
