Guide for Balkans Campaign Hard (WW II Europe; Axis 6)

Man I hated this mission in GoG: Only your general on a weak infantry unit and a very tough turn  limit. However, this time it's much easier since there is already a beachhead south of Sarajevo and our allies are of some limited use.

So send all your forces over to help the Italians against the eventual Greek push lead by Papagos. Navy units also engage the Greek with the ultimalte goal of securing the southern port. Yugoslavia can be ignored for now. Then we counter attack the Greek (together with Bulgaria) and capture their cities. Depending on your skills/generals you can simultaneously attack Yugoslavian targets or play defensively until the conquerors of Greece return.

Papagos prefers to attack the Italian bunker so we can shell him from range. Luckily, the medium tank defending the northern Greek city moved out to attack some ship so we could naval/artillery bomabrd the empty city and take it without resistance.

Heavy tank attacks the remaining Greek city while howitzers are produced and everyone else moves north to support Romanians and land a few free hits on Tito.

Tito defeated and southern city taken thanks to lucky 50% assault triggering.

The heavy tank immediately moves north. First Yugoslavian city was taken in the meantime mostly thanks to unopposed howitzers.

Belgrade is only a matter of ~3 more turns.
