My overeagerness with initial advance costed me dearly (full T-80B battalion going down in 10 min), though I was in hurry to get into Rinteln before your reinfocements arrive. MiG pilots saved the day there basically.
Nice use of smoke. Also you did very well with your ATGM positioning, heavily deniying my advance to the west.
Great game, glad you liked it too.
