Dumb question
 
In the game manule it says that a sqaud with grenads will attack a tank with them but I have never seen that happen.

Is it a game bug or my stupidiy?

What range are you attacking the opposing tanks? Thrown grenades have a range of 1 hex (so you units have to be in the adjacent hex).

They are 50 meters[1 hex] but every time I try in test battles they don't use them on the tanks

Unless they are out of grenades or very low in ammo, they almost always use them, at least that is my experience. I would say, they use them 95% of the time.

Oh, make sure that your troops after firing the rifles, do not get fired upon and thus end their attack prematurely.

I run another test battle and see if i can get them to use them on tanks tonght.
I don't know if it matters but the tanks i was facing were t90 of the russins vs u.s.m.c rifle squad

Thank you for the replay's

That's interesting, because a unit should use all available weapons. Do they not have "shots" for whatever slot the grenades are in?

How about the morale? If suppressed enough, they'll just fire primary weapon.

My troops morale is usually between 1[my preferance]and 5 so they should work.

I think the manual means infantry assaulting armor, in the "melee" sense of it, not just tossing grenades from 20-30 meters away.
