Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

Mustang, which hole? The Helio had hundreds of holes in it. IIRC, the turbine had enough blades shot off that it was shutdown to prevent self destruction. At the time Doctrine for AH's was to form...

Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

Mustang, the Farmer saw the Helio. He lined up his trusty blunderbus and squeeeezzed the trigger. There was a loud bang and a cloud of black powder smoke. The Helio fell from the sky.

Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

I most strongly disagree about the 'meat bombs'. Paras have their place and time. They just must be used in quanity. I NEVER drop less then a battalion and NEVER on the first turn. I prefer to...

Re: Should helicopters be artilleryable?

And bombs. I lost a Mil to a napalm strike from an F-4 a couple of days ago. That bugged me, since I am very careful of my helios and having a fighter bomber swoop down and flam'be my Mil seemed...

Re: Arty stops firing - intermittent bug

I think that if you go and look at the roster, you will see that rounds are being sent downrange, that you are just not seeing the explosions and hearing them. Click your fast arty setting on and...

Re: Improvement proposal I - OP fire draining

"With op fir draining you simply send in infantry at 2000m distance and the armor will shoot at it while infantry cannot put a dent in the armor. It will also shoot at the APCs at 2000m even though...

Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

Armored infantry with those oh so expensive and easy to kill IFV's are best used as a reserve. Use them in the main line and they will get chewed up fast, giving your opponent lots of points. If...

Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

As part of a combined arms plan. If you are not sure what to do with them, don't buy them. They are absolutly wonderful for ompletely destroying your opponents Boyd cycle. They also soak off (tie...

Re: Improvement proposal I - OP fire draining

It's called combined arms for a reason. If you have a single unit that is unsupported, then it should be swamped and killed. Your 'soak off' is the game version of the single most common tactic...
