Grenade Launchers
Anybody use them out of choice?
In game terms closest thing probably a HMG
Both penetration of 1 & area weapons but HMG is more accurate & has a decent ammo supply, admitedly the GL does hurt more.
MMG much the same but generaly no penetration & tends for me to be the support weapon of choice as more mobile making getting in position undetected easier.
If the GL has HEAT rounds it can deal with basic APCs but a RCL while less accurate can take on a lot more.
When I use tend to either send the odd one forward with scout partys or use as support for a platoon. In both cases screw the range right down so only supporting said units. In the scouts case though I would rather send a RCL or 2 with him plus perhaps a squad or armored car RCL jeep if reconing in force. If an APC blunders into my position reasonable chance its passengers will die with the vehicle allowing emergency exit. If of course remain undetected the RCLs AC can cause far more havoc as he passes buy than a GL
Anybody found a use for them when think beneficial to a MG or recoil.
Only time I realy found them handy was in city fighting as pack a decent wallop & HEAT round deters enemy vehicles
