Default Re: Mine Resistent Vehicles

I would think that if you mod the picklist correctly they would still be used as tanks (bought by the AI in the tank purchase routines and therefore used as tanks). I'll admit, I don't know if that's how the code works though. By making them APCs any infantry riding (if you allow for that at all) is treated as protected too.

How much of a mine or IED are they really supposed to be able to resist anyhow? Adding belly armor historically has been to prevent casualties within vehicles, but the resulting damage to the vehicle always remained pretty serious.
