Default Re: Lethality of SAMs

I mostly play as Greece and there are no AAA guns that don't need a truck, so I find them a bit useless. Combined with the lower stats of the SAM batteries and mobile SAMs.

Then again i "refuse" to use any type of artillery that requires a seperate truck.

The few times that I used mobile AAA guns (playing PBEM as Syria for example) they were very bad at getting hit, but also very good at hitting enemy helicopters and also forcing the enemy to go out of their way to avoid getting detected by them.

I do find the mobile SAMs not being very accurate against modern planes so I find myself in a 12000 points game to have 5 mobile SAMs and 4 Inf-Stinger. I don't like having so many, but cluster bombs are a ....to deal with.
