Re: MBT's

Another "trick" I use often is:

Even if your battle is intended to be a "Meeting engagement" or "Advance" you can switch it to an "Assault" if you want some, but not all of one side "dug in" or...

Re: Horsies and motorcycles

That would require multiple new Units (you'd need two units of both dismounts and mounts, one for each type) and Formations (you'd need two formations, one for each type) AND would be a significant...

Re: Messed up purchase screen

I use helos and air regularly and you need to pay attention to the number of formations you're allowed. Be the formation 1 helo/aircraft or 3. The number is individual units (helos/aircraft) is...

I think the ad he was referring to was part of the video and done by the person that posted it.

Re: Bring the battleships back? AGAIN!

Another nice thing about large caliber naval guns.

You can intercept missiles/aircraft/helos with other missiles, sometimes disrupt them with EW, and there's always AA/Phalanx type systems. Would...

Re: Bring the battleships back? AGAIN!

I was told (i.e. may well be a Sea Story [i.e. total B.S.]) that during Desert Storm an Iraqi Corps HQ was located in a school complex in Kuwait City. They didn't want to use bombs because of the...

No.
BUT!
Some good info here on the US vs the PRC.
And what MAY happen.

Re: Horsies and motorcycles

I find cavalry (well, small scout units with mounts) VERY useful in rough terrain you really don't want to send vehicles into; forests,swamps, etc.

Re: The UAV Club

I expect to see SEAD systems on larger/more expensive drones.

Re: Horsies and motorcycles

Generally 1 man in will hold the horses.
With horses it's very easy to tie the bridle of one to the saddle of another then have one rider lead a conga line of horses pretty much anywhere they want...

Re: What happens in 2025? / new tactics- new technologies

The more I see from Ukraine the more I'm reminded of WWI.

Minus:

Re: The UAV Club

At least Andy was able to jiggle the code so Area SAMs (i.e. "Surface to Air Missile" Weapon Class 12) do not fire on drones. So we don't see a $6-10,000,000 Patriot missiles wasted on a $2,000...

Re: The UAV Club

Drone and counter-drone systems would require work (i.e. coding) to implement "properly".

Right now drones are just a variant of Observation Aircraft and any counter-drone systems would be, by...
