I dont know if its just the message saying this or whether they really do get a extra fith charge when they close assault.

Next time you see this Chuck try to get a save game so we can all look at it becasue I just ran a test with those same Romanian paratooper pioneers with NO flamethrower or Gebalt ladung left and when they close assualted a tank all they used were the weapons that were still available.... NO flammethrowers...... NO Gebalt ladung

I know when a unit close assaults it only expends ammo it has left but can it use a weapon for close assault when the ammo stock for that weapon is depleted? I ask only because it seems to me that squads with depleted AT weapons are more effective than squads without them when close assaulting tanks (could be blind luck though, as I have not conducted scientific test
).
Don or Andy could you debunk or confirm this, I am very curious as to whether or not it is coded into the part legacy part new "spaghetti". This would actually make sense if it were because AT equipped infantryman would be trained in tank killing and could use their knowledge even without spare AT ammunition.
Would it make any difference if the tank assault was op-fire or human controlled, as to whether or not ghost ammunition could be used (If indeed, it is used at all)? If ghost ammo does exist can the AI also use it?
