the real toruble is not shown in the video... the "guerrillas war" what you have to do after the shells from the cannon are out. killling house by house, mg by mg in a german infested map...its a lot work. A lot time needed for that.

Thanks for the playthrough video, patric. It's been quite a while since I beat the mission, but your recap brought back great memories. "Key to Kerch" is undoubtedly difficult and seemingly impossible for newcomers, yet it's a tip of the hat to all veterans of the series. Still, the map's not only quite possible to beat, but also incredibly fun.

Yes, my squad crawled around on their bellies more often than I'd like to admit. All the same, I intuitively followed the strategy your video suggests: after parking the main force in safe positions, I assembled a team consisting of a squad leader, a sniper, an AT buster, and two heavy MG gunners and infiltrated the enemy's right defenses.

First, we silenced the STUG once and for all. Afterwards, we continued operating behind enemy lines, taking out troops and guard towers in commando fashion. Our final assault was a carbon copy of your attack on the church, destroying the tanks and capturing the arty.

After that, the mission was a breeze. Not fast, not easy, yet fun and offering an incredible sense of satisfaction once the smoke cleared. Imo, one of more memorable missions of the franchise.
