Default Re: Best way to use airmobile and panzergrenadiers

I rarely use infantry in armor battles unless there's a strategic choke point in close terrain. They're soo slow and easy to kill, especially in their expensive APCs. So if you want to know how to use them, take my advice- don't.

Against an enemy with less long-range weapons, like tank guns, your APCs might survive long enough to dismount infantry. On the attack, infantry are easily suppressed if they are in clear terrain and they enemy is in cover, so you'll probably need a strong number advantage or lots of artillery to keep the enemy's head down. You probably know the tactic where you lay down suppresion fire so another one of your elements can close in and assault the enemy- does that work for you?
