Close Combat 2: A Bridge Too Far
                tip: In many cases, the object of each battle
                is not to take the whole map immediately. If
                you try to cover a whole map with your initial
                forces, they will likely be wiped out. Plan to
                capture one or two strategic victory locations
                then call a cease fire (unless the quick
                capture of a bridge is required). After the
                cease fire, you can move your troops and
                reinforcements safely to the front without
                dealing with the enemy.

                tip: As tedious as it may seem, you must try
                flanking your troops around the enemy. Full,
                frontal assaults are generally pointless. We
                suggest giving your enemy a visible target
                (something weak, like replacement infantry)
                at a safe distance. This keeps the enemy busy
                while you sneak your elite troops around the
                side. Also, use a recon unit to scout the area
                ahead of your flankers.

                tip: Play as the Germans. They have a simpler
                strategy because they usually need only to
                hold their ground. It also allows you to see
                how the Allies go about attacking. Learn from
                the computer's victories and mistakes.
