Tanks are also the best breakthrough unit in the game and shouldn't be wasted sitting around sniping stray inf squads. Like I said infantry pushes can be quite effective but tank pushes are equally viable because they can take a few hits while quickly bypassing enemy defences and focus down the key points (mgs if inf are cleanup or ATGs if its a pure tank push). It's just a matter of playstyle really.
In fact here's another one:
"Don't be afraid to use your units. A well used vet 0 unit is often better than a vet 3 unit that is babied"

Because a forum post should be like a woman's skirt. Long enough to cover the subject material, but short enough to keep things interesting.

You have mistaken my Quote.
Its about not using your Tanks Alone to push in. Having Infantry screen infront of your tank while both units are pushing in is viable.
you dont want to run into 2 AP round ATG's now do you.

Well yes you're right but my point still stands. Tank rushes are usefull so saying never do it is wrong. Besides if a tank runs into an ATG it can take a few hits and keep going or just back off. Inf runs into a mg and its a goner.

you do not need more than 1 artillery unit. Do not encourage this style of play.

6 Howies are generally unnecessary and burdensome... unless you're playing against Crazy and his 4v4 stack  |

just call it "scout for enemy emplacements before engaging, do not run into unexpected resistance" |

Don't put more than 1 squad in a building. Every building is a potential deathtrap!
Attack ground with tanks and atgs to shoot through several hedges!
Sometimes doing something totally stupid may catch your enemy off guard!
Aloha and BigDick. Do you really know that your teammates are new guys?

Allied or Axis Attack: Don't move your units too close to the attackers entry point or you'll be raped hard by Artillary!

Always have an anti-sniper call-in in your company. Not having this can cause teammate rage.
Make sure to have enough AT for longer matches. A skilled foe will destroy or otherwise deny ATGs, making recrewing an unreliable strategy. Also, not having enough AT can cause teammate rage.
Watch your pathing! Blocking friendly vehicles WILL cause teammate rage.

"No U"
This should be implemented as gag hint. Makes every EiR player an insider. Occurance 5%. When you attack a position be sure that you still have some units to fall back to. |

In general, yes, but there are times that call for multiple squads in a building (mg rifle, flamer rifle). You have mistaken my Quote.

you dont want to run into 2 AP round ATG's now do you. Maybe this shows the difference between your play style and Davids  |
