Master Company of Heroes 3's Mission 5 with this detailed walkthrough. Learn how to rescue Dog Company, defend your HQ, and destroy the Axis front base.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    You'll start near your HQ. First things first, clear out any enemy units that wander too close to your base. Once that's done, push forward to link up with and rescue Dog Company.
  2. 2
    When you're heading out to find Dog Company, make sure to use the Sherman anti-mine flail. It's your best friend for clearing paths and avoiding nasty surprises. Just follow the path it clears to stay safe from mines.
  3. 3
    Rescuing Dog Company should be pretty straightforward. After you've got them back, regroup all your units and head back to your HQ. It's time to hunker down and get ready for a fight.
  4. 4
    Now, listen up: if you push too far past the Dog Company house, or if a hidden timer runs out, you're going to face a Panzer counterattack. That's exactly why we want everyone back at the HQ – to concentrate our defenses and make them regret coming.
  5. 5
    Time to defend your base! Use your AT guns and Shermans to hold the line. Keep your engineers busy repairing any damaged tanks. Your build order should focus on 4 rifle squads, replacing your halftrack if it gets knocked out, and setting up 2 AT guns to cover your base. If you've got the right upgrade, an M8 armored car can also be really useful for capturing points.
  6. 6
    Once the immediate threat is dealt with, you'll need to slowly advance across the map. Capture any points you can and clear out enemy forces. Be careful about capturing the points directly on the road; doing so can trigger the convoy's arrival, which makes things a lot harder. Your main goal here is to destroy the German front base, otherwise, they'll just keep respawning and retaking everything you've captured.
  7. 7
    Watch out on the roads after the main intersection – they're littered with landmines. Use your Anti-mine Sherman or have your engineers use their mine detectors to safely clear the way.
  8. 8
    The main Axis front base is located in the top-right corner of the map. Your Shermans will be key here for clearing out any garrisoned buildings, while your infantry can handle the German anti-tank guns. Don't forget your engineers; their demolition ability is great for taking down tougher buildings quickly.
  9. 9
    After you secure the road, make sure it's clear of mines and be ready for more German attacks. Position one of your Shermans towards the rear to protect the flank of the approaching convoy. Hurry up and secure the road so the convoy can make its way through safely.
  10. 10
    Honestly, this mission can be a real pain if you don't completely clear the map of German buildings and armor. Taking out their main base and any smaller structures is crucial to preventing constant respawns and making the final push manageable.
Tips
  • Focus on building a strong defensive line at your HQ before the Panzer counterattack.
  • Use the Anti-mine Sherman or engineers to safely navigate minefields.
  • Prioritize destroying the main Axis front base to stop enemy reinforcements.
  • Keep your engineers repairing damaged vehicles to maintain your fighting strength.
  • Capturing road points too early can trigger the convoy and increase difficulty, so be strategic.
