Default Re: Independent units!!: SAM batteries!

Hello everyone!

Good news for everyone interested in having linked-targetting SAM batteries in the game!

Looks like Laurent Touchard has come up with a pretty good way of modelling this:

-As first unit in your SAM battery formation, create an unarmed SAM or SP-SAM unit, with a high AA-radar FC rating and high radio. This one will stand for your radar and command post.
-Then reduce the radar FC rating of all launchers, and set them to have no radio!
-Dispose all launchers near the radar at voice range in a nice battery patern.

This will have the following effects:

-SEAD aircrafts will target the commanding radar at first.
-When the radar is destroyed, all launchers will lose contact, gain high suppression and become unable to fire accurately.

This method works, is reproductible free of rights, but it is only a first go. Any feedback or ideas for improvements would be most welcome!
