The actions are simply facts that we can meet or not. To offer as you can, without waiting for to receive. But words are very powerful, lead us down the wrong or in the right direction. It's up to you. Wittman.

Allright, first thing first: Scyooff thanks for correcting me. I didn't know you could do that. ariete and Major Pain I agree, actions speak louder than world. feldgrau there is a script loop in the final objective. Enemy trucks kept spawning in the base even after I took half of it (if you want i'll post a screen of the problem), after I crossed the second bridge, they stopped spawning. It looked weird though. Now back to report: Attack southern group continued against rail station and the factory. They encountered light resistance from the buildings themselves, however situation turned for the worse, when an armored train started to shell my group. In an act of desperation I called GAP on train position. I lost a Stuka as a result but the train withdrew to the east. With that action i took the bridge in the south. My attention was now turned to the northern bank of Vistula river. I formed my infantry and tanks near the bridge, placed 105mm howitzers behind them and then sent a scout plane. They detected some AA guns that were quickly silenced. After this 105's and 150's started a fire mission against a fortress in the north and cathedral near the bridge. At the same time tanks and infantry attacked from the west, while Stukas started to bomb enemy positions. Heavy fight developed, my forces were able to seize the fort and take some parts of the bridge, but the enemy reinforcements continued arriving from the north. They effectively tied my forces down. To eliminate this threat I ordered my troops to storm a group of buildings in north. Again heavy fighting ensued, but enemy troops in those buildings were neutralized. This stopped further arrival from the north. This completed first bridge objective. Still not sure whether the enemy will counterattack my positions i've left strong forces near the bridge, and used the remainder of the troops to reform two assault groups. I brought artillery closer to central bridge. It was protected by trench lines and 2 strong bunkers. Arty started to fire against the bunkers, and then northern group moved to take the bridge. Two tanks were lost, but I managed to penetrate in the village. There again fierce fight developed and an enemy armored train arrived. That train managed to destroy 2 additional tanks (only 1 Pz. III left), however my arty managed to score a direct hit on the train engine and it was finally immobilized. Stukas were called in, they managed to destroy the train. After that northern edge of the bridge was secured. Last resistance were provided by a lone squad in a house and a coal machine of the train (which was destroyed by Pz.III). Southern group also began it's attack. They advanced easily but sustained heavy infantry loses, so heavy that I had to bring 20mm FlaK guns to deal with entreched Poles inside the houses. Ultimately my troops prevailed. At this critical moment objective was completed. Command sent me a new objective to take yet another bridge in the east. This was supposed to prevent enemy withdrawal. My line of thinking based on previous expriences was following, in the south there is rail line going through the forest. Parallel to it there was a road going through a swamp. Northern group had to advance across open space and cross a small tributary river, to reach the bridge. With my southern group lacking in infantry and northern group lacking tanks, I decided that it was unlikely that the enemy had any defenses near the rail line, despite it being a very good defensive point. I therefore ordered my southern group to attack there. They encountered no ressistance in the forest, but were stopped by defenses near a road junction. Situation was complicated by enemy artillery firing from the other side. After losing a tank and an APC i managed to secure the bridge, but i couldn't cross the river. Instead my arty was brought up, while northern group attacked across open fields and took the bridge across the tributary. That group drew enemy arty against them, allowing my arty to destroy them in turn. Stukas were again called, while I attacked from both sides. I managed to capture an enemy arty piece and use it as a direct fire weapon. Enemy positions were taken and the mission was completed. Overall it turned out, that there was no serious counterattacks, except for a small one (3 squads) from the north sometime after I took the second objective. There are a couple of screens, check them out.

Hi tedi88 very nice report feldgrau there is a script loop in the final objective. Enemy trucks kept spawning in the base even after I took half of it (if you want i'll post a screen of the problem), after I crossed the second bridge, they stopped spawning. It looked weird though. Send me a problem screen. I think these are the AI trucks. If the area around the enemy's main camp is conquered no longer come the trucks. ... this 105's and 150's started a fire mission against a fortress in the north and cathedral near the bridge. At the same time tanks and infantry attacked from the west, while Stukas started to bomb enemy positions. That's how it should be. Overall it turned out, that there was no serious counterattacks, except for a small one (3 squads) from the north sometime after I took the second objective. There are a couple of screens, check them out. It is exemplary to ensure their supply lines / rear area.

Thanks for the encouragement Grot. Translation of the last mission is planned for tomorrow. Then I still need to translate the chapter briefing. It's more difficult than I thought as I haven't played the missions myself so I miss the context. If it's OK with feldgrau then I hope I can translate his next project too.

Quin... you need to add 'Mission Translator' to your profile...
Grot: You jump enough and you'll pop a knee...
I took Jump School at Fort Campbell Kentucky (Home of the Screaming Eagles- 10st Airborne) before my NAM deployment. I really didn't understand why Engineers needed to know how to jump out of a plane.
One of the old dogs told us...
"The jump will not injure or kill you... Those outcomes are Reserved for your F-Up landing".

The polish heavy artillery is making things difficult Frankly i don't know how i completed it that fast. Mission 5 is somewhat easier yet it took me much longer to complete it. Some tips are located in the spoiler. I'll play mission 6 tonight and post a report tomorrow. I advise you to attempt to outflank the enemy in the north. There is an undefended part of the front there. Further move your arty there, that way it will be in range of enemy arty and it will have an advantage of the first shot.
