This allows you an indefinite period in which to set up defenses and build the force you need. Your units in the building should wipe or at least suppress the German volksgren squad standing out in the open in the main sanatorium fuel point area.ĭo not enter or cap the actual sanatorium fuel point. Dismiss the rifleman squads (too expensive in pop pts). When you’re done, put your HMG and the BAR-equipped AE squad in the building. Obviously, retreat any of your units that are taking casualties. Take these units from your base northward to the back gate/entrance of the sanatorium set them up (HMG is your anchor) and kill the one volksgren squad that comes rushing out, and then the other (get close with flamethrower) in the main building. Equip the Assault Engineers with the BAR lying nearby. Equip one of the RE squads with the flamethrower that is lying on the ground near your base. Usually you start with at least an HMG, two rifleman squads, an assault engineer (AE) team, and an RE squad. My strategy emphasizes the building of firing positions and wire to control German infantry, tank traps to keep German tanks (which, again, usually cannot be killed) away from my base, and a well balanced assault team to capture fuel points and generally dominate the map.Ĭaveat: Although you are unlikely to face the Stoumont mission on level 4 or higher difficulty, I have tried this strategy only on levels 1, 2, and 3. I also use a lot of cheap RE squads, equipping them with the practically limitless supply of German schrecks and LMGs that litter this map. But I always use Dog Co., simply because it has good artillery even when un-upgraded. Units with good close-quarters-battle capability can be very useful, since you’ll sometimes face fallschirmjaeger and vetted volksgren and panzerfusilier squads. You can use any company for this mission. (If you cap one fuel point, you get the silver medal if you cap both fuel points, you get the gold.) If you want also to win a silver or gold medal, which I’m assuming you do, you need also to use a portion of your force to cap two other fuel points on the map-tasks involving heavy and increasingly challenging firefights for the control of these and other points along the way. To complete this mission, you need only to take a point close to your base, a big sanatorium complex on elevated ground, and then set up defenses to hold the point against five armor-and-infantry attack waves. The only downside of the strategy is that it can result in a very long (~2-hr hr) playthrough. The mission also is likely to get “stuck” whenever German units are obstructed in their paths-apparently the devs never anticipated that the player might lay tank traps (TTs).įortunately there is an exploit strategy that allows you win the mission, getting the gold medal and lots of XP/veterancy, without many casualties. German vehicles-which are supposed to play a starring role in this mission-often take little or no damage, which of course makes it problematic to engage them. Your ultimate goal is to defeat the German Forces, so you have to strategize on which region you need to conquer next, as enemy reinforcements tend to occupy the areas adjacent to those regions you’ve already conquered.The Stoumont mission is one of the more broken missions in Ardennes Assault. Each company also has 4 unique abilities with up to 6 selectable upgrades, and a unique skill tree which offers 72 multiple levels of improvement – simply awesome customization options! Each company is headed by different Officers with their own distinct styles, perspectives, and abilities. You will get to control 3 iconic companies (The Airborne Unit, Mechanized Infantry, and the Support Unit), from which you get to choose 1 to deploy for each mission. You will take control of US Allied forces and help them fight and conquer each region for them to gain control of it. The campaign map is set in Belgium, split into different regions. The campaign consists of 11 missions and 7 engagements as well as bonus objectives that can change depending on the playthrough.Īrdennes Assault continues the story the series is known for, and is set in World War II particularly during “The Battle of the Bulge” in the year 1944. Company of Heroes 2 Ardennes Assault is a strategy game from the famous Company of Heroes series developed by Relic Entertainment and published by SEGA.įollowing the success of the previous multiplayer-only expansion for Company of Heroes 2, The Western Front Armies, Ardennes Assault is looking to do the same by employing a single-player-only game mode through a non-linear campaign storyline, which means you get to choose your own sequence of playing the campaign.
