For the 6th mission in the Operation Barbarossa challenges, you will be tasked with simply destroying Axis buildings/structures before time runs out. Rather straightforward, but you will be heavily limited on what units are available to utilize. You will only have access to build Snipers, Conscripts, Fresh Conscripts (free call-in), Combat Engineers, and Scout Cars. The bar at the top of the screen will decrease over time so you are racing against the clock to destroy at least 15 Axis buildings (20 if going for the bonus objective), but this can be extended for more time if you manage to destroy neutral buildings. The map has 88 total neutral buildings to destroy which is extremely egregious and offers nothing beyond time extension for the mission itself so I opted to save you the time by only destroying what is necessary. For starting forces, you only have a squad of Conscripts, Combat Engineers, and two BM-13 Katyusha Rocket Trucks. There are several abandoned/heavily damaged Katyusha trucks scattered on the map which can be repaired and recrewed so keep that in mind if you're struggling to keep up with the timer. Right off the bat, send the Conscript squad to grab the PTRS rifle on the ground at the resource point adjacent to your base. Meanwhile, send the Combat Engineers past the point and to the left are two abandoned Katyusha trucks you can repair and recrew. Further up the road you will encounter one of several buildings occupied by MG42s with Axis banner on them. These count towards the structures you need to bring down so use the rocket trucks to unload their salvos on them. If the first volley doesn't do the job, the PTRS equipped Conscripts will be able to assist in bringing the building down as well if the health is low enough. After taking the next point and first Axis building, I prefer to clear the right side of the map before moving up North. Expect another building containing two MG42 HMG teams supported by two squads of Grenadiers. By now you should have four Katyushas which should easily bring down the target building and soften up, if not wipe out, the remaining infantry defending the point. By now you should have at least one command point to spam free Fresh Conscript squads to your hearts content. Expect a counter attack consisting of Grenadiers and Panzer Grens armed with PTRS rifles that will try to hunt down your rocket trucks in retaliation when you start firing at any fortifications up North. If you choose to push up from the left flank, expect an MG42 covering the road behind sandbags as well as a Pak AT gun so be mindful of that. Watch where your barrages are set, however, since there's two more abandoned Katyusha trucks in the area as well and it just takes one rocket to destroy them given the condition they're in. Just past the two main choke points are two bridges, one per side of the map, where you can expect Scout Cars to roll down and cause trouble for your Katyushas so be prepared for them with your Conscripts and hopefully a captured AT gun or two for good measure. Don't forget if you're running low on the timer that you can shell buildings to bring them down to buy yourself a couple more minutes. After ten Axis buildings are destroyed, you can complete the mission by letting the timer run out. However, if you wish to go for the bonus you will need to destroy an Axis base as well as a field HQ nearby. Expect a little more resistance since they will have Stugs and a Panzer IV defending the upper portion of the map. That being said, between the Fresh Conscript spam and captured AT guns you've brought along the way they shouldn't pose too much of a threat. Enjoy!
(Hmm, no walkthrough pinned comment yet.) Yay, rocket truck action. Errm, surreal seeing Kiev be the subject of this game level. Sizable amounts of casualties on your end here, and the level's end really doesn't show the enemy being defeated.
@@michaelandreipalon359 I'm still working on it. Been very busy with work lately but normally I'd wait until it's written up to post. I can certainly see why given current events. Yeah, the mission is just to delay the overall invasion of the city.

Thanks once more for this!
"Yuri wake up, it's time to move!" Those were some sweet, and very satisfying rocket barrages.
They certainly got the job done. That's for sure.
"Hail to the great Yuri!"
"You get a Katyusha rocket, you get a Katyusha rocket, everybody gets a Katyusha rocket!" A perfect describtion of this mission.
Even the "Huns"?
@@michaelandreipalon359Of course. We are professionals, we don't discriminate when it comes to these matters.
Beautiful gameplay and strategy, you make a perfect general 😂
@@blacksamurai76 thanks man! Glad you liked it. The best I can do is armchair general.
Like and good video.👍👍 Another great job dude.
