Soviet Sandbag Placement Tips

Jump back to quoted post2 Feb 2014, 10:07 AMAerohank

When I build sandbags to fortify a position, I usually build them at an angle that will protect my troops from frontal assaults, while at the same time providing little protection when used by the enemy.

Here is a sketch:

Enemy attacks from the top, I defend from the bottom.

|.........|

| = wall, impassable terrain.
. = open ground.
\ = sandbag position.

My units will be be protected from frontal assaults and are hard to flank in this sketch. However, if I get pushed back, the enemy soldiers will be easily flanked due to the angle of the sand bags.

Placing sandbags is a good way to waste precious time. Especially during early game.
