I’m assuming the player is already familiar with the many bugs, AI cheats, and other design/execution flaws in Ardennes Assault, but in the mission discussions I will note any mission-specific bugs.
For Tank Grab, Watchtower, Armored Assault, Houffalize and Stavelot at these levels, expect to take 10-20 casualties at least. Note that difficulty levels 4 and 5 are usually very challenging for most missions. The less experience these companies have, the fewer units they will start with on each mission, so the weaker they will be. In general, all initially available squads, except Fox Co.’s Rangers and Baker’s cav riflemen, cannot fight effectively until they are outfitted with weapons such as BARs, LMGs, or bazookas, and supported by HMGs and AT guns. for the Espeler mission-its paradrops will raise the German alert level and basically blow the mission. One thing you don’t want to do is use Able Co. The remaining missions (Total Domination, Hard Point) don’t seem to favor any particular company. Fox is best for Preservation, Watchtower, Armored Assault, and Railsplitters. In terms of specific missions for which you have a choice, Baker is generally your best bet for Houffalize, Eschdorf, Tank Grab, Stavelot, and Ouren. For the style of campaign described here, your best choices are Baker, Dog, and Fox. You fight the Ardennes Assault campaign with three companies. Upgrades are like training wheels on a bicycle-you’ll soon find that the campaign is not much of a challenge, even on “Hard” level, if you use them. It should be most useful for players who know the basics, but want to master the campaign, achieving gold medals on every mission and campaign scores ~48,000. This guide is for the Ardennes Assault campaign on Hard level.
