The F---!!!! moments thread

[CaptainMattJ.]

I feel like such a noob, but i started playing Men of War for the first time, and last night i constantly failed the first mission in the soviet campaign. I took the village and the hill, but i simply couldnt beat back all those infantrymen on the supply line

It was always a terrible defeat for me. Sometimes id get a track blown off and in a hurried attempt to fix it my crew member repairing the tank got blown away. Most of the time i would try focusing on the armored cars and panzers but ended up not being able to stop the infantry from throwing a grenade that blows off my turret or destroys my tank entirely. So what i ended up doing was simply getting off the hill and backing up near the river. I was able to keep the infantry away from me and the tanks destroyed. So i eventually FINALLY won the mission after about 30 tries, and went to bed. mind you i was playing on hard and my tank had little ammunition to begin with after taking the hill, so i really had to tweak my gameplay styles.


I come back today and APPARENTLY the save files are corrupted, so now i have to replay the mission over again >.>



I also have somewhat of a rant/question. in HOI3, i play as the soviets. Its 1939 and Germany already started the war with poland. So i decide to join in. I blow through the poles, and capture maybe 40-50% of the country including warsaw. But Poland doesnt surrender, they keep fighting. And germany owns the other half of poland. Ive been waiting months and months and nothing has happened yet. Poland hasnt gone to either side, nor given up the "fight" (they have no troops left and still show up as a faction). What the Heck! I cant tell if this is supposed to happen or not. Because i still dont own the territory i conquered, niether does germany with its land, and poland doesnt seem to be officially surrendering? What do i do?
