About the game:
Sudden Strike is a real-time tactics computer game set in World War II and the first game in the Sudden Strike series. The game was developed by Fireglow based in Russia and published by CDV software of Germany.[4] The player selects a faction (e.g. Soviets, Germans, or Allied forces) and gains control of many varied units such as infantry, tanks and artillery. The games focus primarily on tactics, eschewing traditional real-time strategy resource gathering and base development.
The main story features three campaigns (Soviets, Germans, and Allied forces).The battles are presented in an isometric perspective with line-of-sight occlusions and practical cover.
Sudden Strike utilizes accurate in-game physics with houses and buildings obstructing units' view, line-of-sight and firing range whereas clumps of trees can provide cover to reduce the damage of tank ordnance. The game allows units to garrison a building for a stronger firing position, especially valuable for anti-tank infantry. Units can also hold their fire, providing much-needed reconnaissance. Damage evaluation is also realistic; tanks or other vehicles that take too much damage are rendered immobile unless repairs are made.

About the run:
Well another broken scenario from the Axis Campaign which is winable in less then 1min. I dont know why, but at the start you have control over 4 Soviet soldiers, which are getting killed right at the beginning (my guess is, that this has something to do with the scripting for the mission)
So if you are fast enough you can take those soldiers, avoid the artillery, run to the nearby ammuniton depot and destroy it.
Sorry for this really cheap and lame run, but it is the fastes way to beat this level so live with it ;)
