Blitzkrieg style attack on static non-suppressed defense will only get you high casualties. The way I do it (I play against AI opponent):
1. Have scouts/scout cars check the area - if they are hit, it's still lesser loss than for example a medium tank
2. If resistance encountered, soften it by artillery or direct fire
3. Get infantry close (infantry squads, scouts or AT section if dealing with armor) - it's usually easy to get some small units unnoticed, especially is the enemy units are suppressed
4. Have your main force a bit behind and hidden, so that the enemy doesn't call his artillery on you. AI tends to shell the area behind the first units it encounters cause it expects more coming the same way.
Scouts are absolutely great. I usually mix them up with AT sections and marksman/snipers. All of them all small units and can move in the open without being noticed. |
great advice, i'll try to use your "fighting scouts" idea, if i could get my engineers with them... i caould wreck havoc onto their defenses, a platoon with those units you said and engineers/pioneers/whatever equipped with demolition stuff, also, somenthing like infiltrating (from SPWAW) would be great
