Can anyone recommend me some singleplayer missions that would be easy for a beginner? I've browsed through a few of the missions on the Steel Beasts websites, but the couple I downloaded ended up being more for hardened vets. I'm just trying out the demo at the moment and wanted to see how much I would enjoy it before buying. It's pretty daunting right now. Some of these missions start out in contact, and that's just too quick for a noob like me.

I need something with a mission format, but keeps things pretty simple and isn't too hard. I don't want to be blown away by something before I even see it. Not yet anyway. LOL. Any ideas?

The only reason I haven't ordered this already is that I'm afraid I'll play a few missions, get frustrated, and never touch it again. I need to start off slowly, but with something more than a "tank range".

i don't have any specific missions for you, but maybe any of the missions in the Easy section might be what you are looking for?:

Also, some of the scenario design contests were started with design guidelines to be somewhat beginner-friendly, yet hopefully not too easy to master.
