I played a mission by Panzer_Leader about a week ago. It was challenging, but certainly fun! In this mission, the Company-sized Combat Team I am in charge of has been tasked to seize OBJ Edmonton within 90 minutes or less. Opposing us is an enemy Battalion composed of enemy T-55s, BRDM-2 ATGMs, BMP-2s, and Mi-24Ds standing by as a reserve. That isn't including the terrain, which is a mix of rivers, open fields, and forests, all of which seem to favor the enemy. Somehow, I managed to not only seize the Objective in time, but I managed to not have a single infantry casualty, or a single one of my vehicles destroyed!
This is a video well worth anyone's time. Edited to show the interesting bits (and cutting out the lengthy movement times), with a narration that keeps the viewer well informed about how the tactical situation developed. Well done indeed.

+1 It inspired me to play the mission my self. But me being me, I had to try the centre route and lost half my battle group.
This mission is no joke, for sure. Don't skimp on the planning; I attribute my success almost entirely to having a good plan at the start. The rest was quite a bit of luck; I should have had two vehicles destroyed, at the minimum.
