Wanting a Grizzly!

Randy, that's the vehicle. I wasn't planning on putting a gun on her, but figured for sake of making the icon, merge what's out there to develop an 80% solution. Don't make icons do you?

Sorry I can't do icons. If I did there would be tons of stuff I could add. I don't think there are any breaching/combat engineering vehicles being made now that have guns on them. But an M1A1 with a 165mm demo gun like the M-728 CEV would be devastating!

It's not needed. The M908 HE-OR-T [High Explosive Obstacle Reduction Tank] round does the job as well or better than the 165mm gun did ( QUOTE...."It was found that a modification of the M830A1 high explosive multi-purpose cartridge (2-pound High Explosive warhead fielded in 1994) did as well as, if not better than, the 35-pound M123 warhead at reducing obstacles)

AND due to the way the game works ANY HEAT round will do the same thing.

and the Grizzly with the MCLIC mine clearing charge isn't something we model in the game either. Note how the game clears mines. That's not going to change. When you wait at a minefield and the game determines mines are cleared all of the necessary equipement and or men needed to do that is assumed to be working so I could put a Grizzly in MINUS the MCLIC but an Abrams MCBS does the same job game wise and has a nice big gun already attached
