Re: OP URIC part 1
Have not tried the second scenario, so cannot comment on that...yet . But adding in the paratroopers, and giving the infantry slightly more punch against tanks definitely adds the right touch to the scenario. It gives the Rhodesians a solid shot at a marginal victory (my last game) and at least a chance - albeit slim - of a decisive victory. I also added a couple of extra mortars on the Rhodesian side - to give them smoke cover as they advance (again, very typical for this type of combat). If I can offer other players one very good piece of advice it is to use your assets aggressively. That means heavy use of Z-key-fire against buildings, using helicopters in tandem, so that their fire covers each other as they move, and keeping up the momentum of the attack. Keep units together to concentrate fire, use smoke freely, and - once an area is secure - leave a force behind to deal with the tanks while you load most of the troops back into the choppers for another insertion. Save some airpower to deal with the tanks as well! Anyway - a terrific scenario. Thanks so much.
