I suck tremendously

This thread reminded me of one of the best SNES games:

Well I could hold anyone if I just had a map with only two bridges. Setup 15 Anti-Tank Guns at each and 4 Machine gun Nests.

You'd be surprised. I always try to test my strategies against myself so I'll play with a friend and direct him on how to set up the defenses and then we'll skirmish to see if I can get through.

It's hard on the armor path, but not impossible. On Infantry the ability to use off-map arty makes it damned near impossibly easy.

The overwhelming force on a bridgehead defense isn't shabby by any means, but it can be broken. The beauty of it is to cause so many casualties that you can hold them at a second line. Problem is, most people don't bother setting up effective second lines.

I really really wish you could blow buildings directionally to block roads that they either have to send engineers up to blow through or use a tank with a bulldozer attachment. It'd make real defensive works a lot more interesting.
