I just started to enjoy GJS after rediscovering CC5 in my drawer early this year. I used to play CC2, CC3 and CC5 quite a lot. I have one issue on GJS: German Infantry. I have a really hard time to kill them, the IA seems to fanatize them all the time, !
I have no big difficulty in cities or when lining armour support. Main issue is on open maps while lining up my Airborne troops (no armour). I tend to use 2-4 AT Guns as the German Panzers abound in GJS. Rest of my troops: 3 leaders, 1 mortar 3 inch and lots of Rifles+Brens.
Is there anything wrong with this mix? Are the mortars less powerful in GJS? Is there any tricks or tips you wanna share?
Also, I have difficulties with the Holwitzer on maps with "corn fields". I just cannot have a red dot on sneaking german troops. Is that a bug? Right now I aim a bit ahead of their movement with a brown dot, is there a better way to handle this?
I am asking this as there is a "corn field" in Ranville containing the victory site called "Landing site" I lost 3 full units of BRENS supported by a AT6 pdr (also lost) and a Holwitzer against 3 Vet Grenadiers - bloody H"ll there were only half depleted).
Thanks guys for sharing the knowledge and congrats to the community for such a high quality project!
