Key Principles of the Attack: Using two different battlesâ€â€one from the American perspective, one from the Germanâ€â€the third tutorial in this series illustrates the concept of Find and Fix the enemy, then Destroy him by identifying and exploiting a weak spot. Covers use of engineers, artillery and Target Reference Points, calculating line of sight, probing, and making the best use of your most valuable assets, be they copious amounts of ammunition or Panther tanks.

In this third video on Combat Mission tactics, we finish our instruction on how to attack through two example battles. We outline the basic principles of the attack, and then go to cover many important points in detail, like the use of Target Reference Points, and calculating line-of-sight from different movement points.

Very nice video. I really enjoyed this one. You nailed all the nuances there are in conducting a successful attack with combined arms. I'm very much looking forward to your defensive tactics video.

Nice. Well done sir. That last one seemed really tough. Especially against a human mind. Never the less, you won the day.

Will we be getting a video on how to plan a tactical defense in depth? I'm an expert on tanks and tank tactics but my infantry expertise is quite lacking...

That was great. Thanks for your vids. The narrative is very informative. Covered arcs are a bit problematical in movement conjunctions alright. Movement orders around bridges can also deliver tactical surprise outcomes.
