CoH EiR: Tactical Display of Blitzkreig assault on static defensive position

The Blitzkreig is famed for its speed and ferocity in history. In Company of Heroes: Europe in Ruins persistency modification, this is true as well. This is a tactical display showing how a properly executed Blitzkreig can throw even the strongest defence awry, and avoid the lengthy attrition bloodbaths that most axis assaults result in.

didnt look too much like a static defense looked like all u did was over welm a load of engineers :S hardly comparable to opperation barrberossa :P

It's exactly like Barbarossa. The soviets didn't have plan to build up their forces on the border. If those engineers had the full 3 minutes to fortify the map with bunkers, tank traps and mines, any attack would be stalled.

This is more of a Rommel-type tactical attack where you use your initial push to seize the tactical initiative. Blitzkreig actually involved an indirect approach where the attacker avoids a frontal confrontation and attempts to outflank an enemy or pierce a defense line and get into the enemy's communications and supply network. Rommel's book, Infantry Attacks, advocated the kind of tactical techniques you demonstrate here. It doesn't matter what weapons you use: it is the thought behind them.

blitzkrieg doesn't only consist of the tanks either, fallschirmjager played a huge role, Luftwaffe played a huge role. The Armored task was a piece of it and probably the more recognized piece.
