I know I'm a noob ...Also, any tips on how to beat the first American mission? I can't ever raise the flag without sounding the alarm.

Ive got nothing on that first level....it took me forever and a week to beat it. I took my 4 dudes and snuck through the middle of town to the tower where your supposed to meet D'Astaie or w/e and then snuck around the back of the base then launched my 4 man attack haha. Then raised the flag

cant say I liked this kind of missions in MoW. 2-3 men beating a whole army. Not my taste.

I think MoW really shined where you had either a whole army under your hood or at least a tank with some men to achieve your targets while some allied army was attacking together with you. So obviously the missions I liked most have been in the Soviet champaign. It feels to me anyway like most of the time and resources went in to that and the rest like the German or Allied missions got not so much attention. Sad actualy. I would have loved to get more of such situations. It would have been great to see some fighting in the ardenes against Panthers, Kingtigers even ~ there have been quite succesfull American defences around Stravelot, Bois Jacques or the attack on Foy (not very far from Bastogne) and of course LA GLEIZE where the US captured a Kingtiger in perfect conditions!. Missions like the battles around Caen or Market garden which seen much use of Jagdpanthers and Panthers against the Brits equiped with Fireflies, Achiles and Cromwells one very interesting operation was the fighting around Arnhem (a bridge to far) which involved British paratroopers. The Soviets could have got as well Kursk, Operation Bagration (sandomirz where they captured a couple of Tiger II). The Rhein and Ruhr Pocket would have allowed for some action of Jagdtigers and Pershings.

agree 100%! Those sneak missions were pretty much useless. Only ones I liked are the ones where ur sneaking acutally has consequences for the main battle (Seelow, some of the german missions)

Each mission follows specific soldiers and commanders. The Soviet missions have Kuznetsov and Smirnov (I don't believe they were at Kursk)

You could put these extra missions as bonus maps, but they won't go into the campaign.

Kuznetzov and Smirnov were really people then? I figured they jsut came up w/ a good storyline and went with it.

Well then they could have made it bonus missions at least. Thing is just that I have the feeling a lot more attention was spend to the Soviet mission. Particularly the Allied mission was extremly boring. Except for 1 or 2 missions. And the end came way to sudenly. It was like "ok last assault by the Germans now letz get to Itally/europe!" but nothing. It was simply over. kinda sad

The allies were really boring in real life. Most of the heavy fighting took place on the Eastern front.
