History Line: 1914-1918/Mosel

Strategy
One of the most challenging maps in the game, pity the computer will not press home his advantages and stall. Your first objective is to let your forces on the northern river bank capture the factory, cross the river and help defend the HQ area. For that, you will need to buy time. The sappers in the southeast should dig trenches as obstacles for the approaching enemy forces; in the southwest, your artillery units should keep firing at the tanks for as long as they stand; sappers in the rear should entrench every bunker and dig trenches wherever they can as obstacles. The northwestern group should make a brief stand but fall back in time while the sappers plough the whole area as they withdraw; the northeastern group should brake though quickly: it will not reach the factory first, but it can and should use the mobile flak to engage the enemy aircraft as they leave the factory. By this time, the transport flotilla from the far east should have arrived, ready to ship repaired and new units to the other side just as the enemy approaches the HQ area from the southeast. You will have a massive reserve of resources at your disposal: build several heavy artillery pieces to place right in front of the factory and fire to the east; otherwise build light artillery and tanks to ferry over. After repelling the southeastern assault you can capture the eastern industrial area – an amphibious landing is faster than taking the land route – while your bunkers deal with any enemy units approaching from the southwest. After capturing the eastern facilities, you can simply outproduce the enemy and conquer his HQ area with lots and lots of armor and artillery ferried across the river and brought in by long rows of trucks.
