Romania 1944. Battle of Ploesti.

The Elite objective is to apprehend a third Soviet Marshall. In the notes, the author states that in order to get the cache of 85 KV-85 and 40 T-44 tanks at Jijila, you must use paratroopers. Is the third Soviet Marshall at this village? If not, I prefer to keep my 43 Grenadiers as 43 Grenadiers as I don't think this cache is worth taking them out of the main battle. I don't want to know where the Marshall is, if not at Jijila. Thanks all!

Yes. The "cache" is your reward for fulfilling the elite objective. 2 Fallschirm with tac support to destroy the vigilant tanks over there can do it. You can encircle the town and the artillery around it by positioning them right.

Thanks for your information!

yes, there is the Marshall waiting for you to capture him. I just used a plain paratrooper unit to do so after arty and planes cleaned out the enemy units across the river

Long Range 21cm Arty (with Double Attack) is damn useful in clearing out the village across the sea. There is a hill that will help lesser arty as well. After its cleared send in the Paras.
