How do you capture the armored vehicle in the first mission?

Yeah, for one reason or another I dont think its possible, ive tried on several occasions to capture it. ive had it where it is otherwise capturable but the game doenst let you have it....

Nothing is impossible. It is only not very probable.

Keep trying.

I do belive its impossible since they coded it so player(you) can't enter it even if he eliminates the crew.

Just toy around with the game editor and change a few things.

I have just had the game for two weeks. I've been playing the first part over and over to learn the game. I've been lucky to repair a little two man scout car with a ring mounted machine gun. I got the scout car right after fixing the tank track in the beginning so I used it to help take town and the hill and destroy the convoy. I was able to do this once, most of the time I blow it up instead of just killing the crew. When I get to repair the half-track the game is essentially over. I did once capture and then repair the medium tank that always charges at me down the hill when I start the attack. I used a soldier out of my tank and when I moused over the medium tank it gave the entry symbol so I had him crawl into the tank while using the main tank to keep enemy heads down. The only fault was a repairable turret and it had a repair kit on board.

In this game anything is repairable if it gets any message but Hull Destroyed.

Unless a part is completely blown off.

No,it's not.I remember one misson in Red Tide when you have to destroy the AA-guns and capture the planes, but when you get to AA-guns you can't capture them.This is because if youget 3 Flak guns capturing the airfield will be too easy!So some objects (like that armoured car)have a script so you can't capture them!

I had more luck.
The hard part is stopping the tank from blowing up the cars before I can capture them. I kept switching to machine gun and before I knew it the tank would use an AP shell and blow everythin up. By using the tank up close to push or roll the car over on its back. That is enough to empty the car of Germans. Use the tank to roll the upright if it is still on its back. This worked for the Sdkfz 223 and the Sdkfz 232. I lost a tank track once while trying this on the half-track but coming from the side is better because that gun has such a narrow traverse range. The medium tank on the hill can be had by hitting it with an HE shell to damage the turret. Then move near to help one of your guys slip in and start repairs. Save the game often to reduce frustration.
