From here, you can blast away to clear the western path from the beach and obtain your first medal. Throw a grenade at the big AT/AA gun and then capture it. The medal on this mission can be obtained after the "big explosion" cut scene by clearing the western approach to/from the beach.After you get more used to playing, you will look back and wish you had obtained more of these medals, so why not start focusing on them now?! You can view these medals obtained on the main screen under the subcategory Rewards.


Later in this mission, when squads fall below six, you can call in reinforcements to fill the vacancies.Let me just point out a few things on Mission 1 to help get you started. So just getting started with Company of Heroes? Congrats! This is a great game! And the cut scenes to Omaha Beach have to be one of the most classic (and intense) in gaming history!
