Guide for Operation Barbarossa Hard (European; Axis 7)

Lots of objectives but my allies were of great use in this mission. The southern units consisting of two medium tanks and one howitzer ultimately took Kharkiv and briefly help with Smolensk. The main forces around the heavy tank go east to take Minsk, Smolensk and Moscow. Then everyone surrounds and kills Zhukov. In the North, Vatutin is considerably damaged by Mannerheim's forces and then stays in the corner. That's why I sent some double stacked Motorized Infantry from Minsk across the lake to finish the job.

Each group captured their first city thanks to paratrooper.

Together with the allies we "formed a heavy hammer" to crush Konev.

The forces are split again, the first motorized infantry goes into the lake, and the heavy tank clears some of the units around Zhukov while the slow artillery catches up.

Team South takes the small city while main forces still regroup.

One more hit and ... victory
