Once you kill that initial bunch of German vehicles, things get easier for a bit, and though more and worse armor will come later, you can avoid too much exposure to that by getting German victory points down quickly. Your infantry needs to be in cover and your fragile vehicles need to be out of the firing line when German armor shows up. You also need to get AT capability asap, and if you start with an M20 that means its bazooka-equipped crew will have to take a break from driving, get into cover, and do some vehicle-killing. Obviously, you need to keep your AT gun (if you plan to use it) in a place where its flanks are protected and it can see to max range. You start with a single RE squad, an unvetted AT gun, and two thin-skinned M8 or M20 scout cars, and within a few minutes you will be attacked, usually from two or three sides, by 5-7 German vehicles including Pumas, flak-halftracks, mortar halftracks and kubelwagens, with infantry support. Even on level 1 difficulty, the “Armored Assault” mission is sometimes ridiculously unbalanced.
