This thread has a lot of good posts that will give you tips on how to play the game:

im gonna try the whole game on easy, and see if I can get throught all missions. Does it get harder as you go on?

[djsatane]

Nah, most of these are skrimishes so it just depends on scenario and faction some make it tougher, if you get dlc 2 skirmissh pack or some of the mod missions then its a bit different style.

Have you ever played original men of war campaign?

im sorta new to PC games and this was my choice of RTS/strategy as i dont like the full on RTS. I like it but it needs a level between easy and normal... I want normal challenge but not the tanks enemy reinforcements.

You could try tweaking one of your saved games,

This vid is for MoW but works great with MoWAS also.
By using this tweak you'll have lots of points to call in all the reinforcements you need. Then you can play on Heroic.

I knew about this and gave myself 2000 xp on the overlord level on normal I lost all my points and had no flags lol

I must be really bad this!

Are you using "Direct Control" when fighting? Also sometimes it helps to slow down the game ("Backspace") when things get hectic. I just give myself so many points that I don't have to worry about it.

[Alfadan]

its not that it gets hectic i just get overun by enemy tanks!!!

[djsatane]

Just hold tight and hide some of your forces when tanks get close, plus invest in a lot of at guns, and place them on flanks and in places that are not open to all angles so that enemy tanks have to get closer before they can even engage, and closer range shot.

Anti-tank grenades are your failsafe when ll else fails.
In my experience if they hit they do damage 100% of the time. Not always a hull destroyed, but at least crew injured, usually more.
I run 2-3 infantry at a tank with anti-tank grenades which if they don't get killed enroute almost always ends in a tank dead.

Mid game start stealing wrecked enemy tanks by knocking them out then assigning infantry the wrench command (repair) and send them to a dead enemy tank and repair it. Then grab 3 more men for a 4 man crew and snap! you have a FREE tank.
