if..so
If you hole up you can be smoked out..if there is no cav ready to rush in and turn the attackers I mean.
The possibility of loosing and the uncertainty -sounds like a great campaign imho.
As for tactics - you have a militia larger then the enemy force but the enemy is hard troops whereas you guys are not .
Fighting is difficult as the attacker can choose his battlefield in those circumstances.
Without knowing the lay of the land or any numbers etc of troops and equipment its hard to advice.
As a GM I would say - give the man runnning the game what he wants - let your desperation show so h eknows that you have got the message .Then start whitteling down the opfor in a series of skirmishes and mortar assaults or some such - no one time set battle but carefully bleedding him as you loose the said firefights..Even Spetznas will not take infinite casualties for a hick village of no importance ( or might there be an importance ????)
If not applicable use the oldest and most common tactic in military history -
run.
