Have done Kalisz three different times as a player - first time was with an M1A1 in college along with several very interesting player characters including a gentleman playing an infantry scout who was an Apache (since he was one in real life) and was deadly with a bow and a knife as well as NPC's who had a Bradley - we managed to blow our way thru the Russians at the bridge, liberate the POW camp and take out a couple of HQ's (my GM was a "we like explosions" GM) and eventually got thru the Madonna, Krakow and Warsaw and then back to Germany
- played for two years at college - ended up back home and doing Last Submarine trilogy - we spent a lot of time on various adventures looking for fuel (including one player making what my GM called the two luckiest rolls he had ever seen that led to us finding an underground tank full of fuel at USCIE SOLNE (i.e that one that the Krakow module says is almost certainly false - my GM assigned a very small chance to find the supposed fuel and he made the rolls)
other two times were recent - one with a broken down LAV-25 that we exchanged for a BMP that the crew was too busy taking a leak to see us - and then got it taken out by an anti-tank mine - got to the Madonna
the last time we had a Bradley and a HEMTT - was a very fun game - again we liberated the POW's but then the game ran out of juice and it ended before we cleared the area and went anywhere
