yes we place them in such places also woods, biuldings, and to make for fair
games at least half are placed on open hills or valley or terrain such as
the bridge. This makes for the fact you need to controll these open areas as
well as the cheese of hiding in biuldings or woods that tanks and shuch
can't enter. What good is it to control the city if the enemy controls the
road ways, how would you get food and supplies yes I know air drop but then
I'd just surround you with AA out of reach form city units and blast your
planes. Your best bet would of been to just ignore those OP's and go after
the open area were numbers were few. For you had the numbers with you and
could afford to go after these while he could not.
