Hey spartan, I’ve also got a few basic tips. Note: not all of these work all the time, and that other guy got most of the normal stuff down, so I’ll go over the normal way to start a game:
First and foremost, your first five waves generate double TP’s (Tactical Points), so use these in the first three waves to make an engineer, than dig a trench, preferably near your side of the field, but still near the middle. Get your guys in there and work up to getting an officer, medic, signaller, whatever else the situation requires, and upgrade your original soldiers’ weapons. Remeber: Keep your starting soldiers alive as long as possible. You get a maneuver ribbon for this, and next time you get it, you get a free TP. Oh, and camnets: Most new people don’t know what they do, so I’ll tell you. They make your guys invisible to german command. Basically, if all your guys except one man are under camnets, the germans will act as if you only have one man. The soldiers will still shoot your hidden guys, but there is MUCH less chance of troublesome airstrikes, less soldiers will come, etc. Also less tanks. (YAY LESS TANKS) Hope my incoherent rabble helps you, and, ahem Good luck in your Future Endeavors.

Hey, looking for strategies? You could check the link in the game description, lots of guides there, but here’s one strategy for you:

A few basic things: keep your soldiers on trenches and far enough from the enemy so that grenades do not land on them. If you keep being overrun, then you need more firepower. Spec ops are good for this, or just plain hire lots of regulars. Specialty troops like signalers, machinegunners, flamers and vehicles generally are not good on their own, so build a basic unit of regulars first then get the special units. Remember that as you earn ribbons it gets a bit easier.
