1. Get an engineer
2. Buy a radar station
3. Buy an antenna
4. Hire an officer
5. Hire a signaller
6. Always keep 1 tactical point ready
When you hear the sound: press "Air Supremacy".
If you do it 2-3 times or if you have many tactical points ready the enemies STOP ANY AIR ATTACKS.

really i think the game would be improved 100% if the first change you made was eliminating the large arial bomb. I have had the computer throw that thing down before i could even buy a 6th man...
that bomb destroys everything and generally drops half the time before you have proper anti air

I was using so much memory I had to advance to reset memory usage from the game, do it every 50 waves or so to keep everything clean.
After you stabilize you can start making tank defenses

Later you can use a tank in front of bunker, but not necessary, specially if you have 6+ medics and around 8+ deadly soldiers. At around 6 soldiers you really dont need to do anything anymore. Good game but once you figure out how to avoid air strikes (1 free tac point + radio + antena + signaler + officer) and how to avoid their grenades (trench+bunker at the bottom) and to control what they target (3 french meat/gunners shields in a slightly advanced bunker) then set up a host of medics to keep the system organic and a group of officers behind the fighters (the more the better). At around 6 officers they get 1-2 extra tac per turn and reduce number of germans 1-3 times.

Also, I didnt mentioned yet, but its the first thing you do after the trench: radio and antena + signaler/officer. Always keep 1 tac point. Later if you have many unused tac points they dont even bother with air strikes/bombs/artillery. After you have a host of medics doing the french meat cycle, create another trench on the other side of the botton, around the bunker, put some spec ops, officers behind... Keep healing the french meat. I even got galandry medal this way.

Im playing for 12 straight hours now.
Promoted 9 soldiers to officers, have 3 tanks, around 8 snipers (bought them when I woke up, had 68 unused tac points), 9 spec ops, 6 officers (lots of bonuses every round), 2 engineers (I started with them), 1 signaler...
Here is what I did, put a trench in the botton and a bunker in the center slightly above the bottom, like 1 soldier above the trench line. Put french meat on the bunker, hire medics, if french gets damaged, pull him back, so the next one gets targeted inside bunker. Cheap strategy.

People seem to be complaining about how hard it is, so maybe in the next Mud and Blood, or even has an update for this one, had difficulty settings, and maybe some game modes to keep it a little fresh, but awesome idea with this game.

Good game, needs a few adjustments. More tac points, lessen enemy grenade damage etc.
I would play this as a full strategy game if it was one.

Also my troops continue to shoot at dead bodies while they get pegged by living adversaries. Maybe their "moral" is too low.

Chaos I just restarted because I fell short, :( Forums can be a big help...But you could always restart like I did :D Great game, and instead of making a new medieval one they should just update and fix this one still a 4* game, faved :D

WOW - I just discovered that some badges can become impossible to earn. I just earned on for surviving 1000 waves before my 25th mission. It's SWEET - all my infantry start with M1's from now on. Sad though that if someone made it to 25 missions and fell short, they could NEVER earn this badge.

Gets boring in the end, points should be issued due to kills to speed up the late game(btw. did you know there ARE enemy jeeps and tanks^^after 2 hours I saw the first ones).
Bugs:
select soldier a and click on soldier b to select him. soldier a moves sometimes to soldier b but soldier b was selected.
Medic Medal does not work(no xp gain).
Removing flankers does not work(after the first time)
Sometimes options arent executed but you have to pay for them. E.g. clicking two options after one another.
Options aren't applied but deducted. E.g. Heroism on disabled soldiers.
Esc should clear the cursor and build in a mute button(except warning sound) and a button to end the current game(to get the ranking points). Promotions should be shown after the battle and not after you started a new one.
Needs work to be enjoyable but good concept.

AI for your own troops needs an improvement. For every enemy i killed with a grenade, i've killed 4 of my own troops, and thats with very good troops using them.

My medals won't save. If i close the window and come back they are gone. Even if i leave after back to the menu screen.
I demand the next updated version! This is a great game but all the bugs and flaws make it really hard to enjoy (although I'm still addicted to the bugs)

Half the time I can't read the health because it is obscured by the buttons on the right side of the screen. There should be some way to get tactical points faster than the mindnumbingly slow rate at which they are awarded. A mute button would be good also. And I have no idea how my overall profile is promoted.

start getting bored.
needs a option to select al units.
and is there any goal then just defend and walk to more land??
i think this game had good ideas, but its screwed, im srry

It is hard to tell how many points you have to spend. Prehaps add a little more contrast between the points and their background.

Gotta keep in mind that EVERYTHING is random in this game. they could throw a tank at you first round if they wanted to. Just gotta grind it till you unlock the bonuses i guess.

i think the corpsemen are gay...he layed down on top off another one of my soldiers and started to go"ahhhhhh"....im afraid.

good game, but it still gets a 1/5 considering instead of fixing the serious flaws this game has the designer chooses to make reasons for each problem.

Why the hell tanks dont shoot enemy panzers?! I had 5, yes a five tanks in a row with infantry support in bottom of my map when german panzer appeared, nothing, not a single shot! panzer took eventually out 3 of my tanks and then disappeared without a scratch!
