Bombs on Troops???

[Lupusman]

I've been using it this way since the first demo. After I looked at all the possible weapons to use, clusters were the most efficient. I was saying to myself, why the heck would anyone use anything else?

Cluster bombs as troop weapons ??
I tried that but it doesen´t seem to
work. How come?
Have i done something wrong?
Some templete suggestion for testing
purposes? Just curious.
BTW, has anybody figured out ground combat
a little ?? e.g. Have WPs any effect.
How combat effective is a militia.
Comparable troop design as example.
How does it function? Simultanious shots of
both sides, one after another(initiative?)

Hm... as for the "sense" of it, I think of the little troopers as drop-pod troops (hence the reason you need to research them). The cluster bombs are just hitting the ground right before the landing craft touch down.

Oh, and I think the mechanics are pretty chancy, though I'm not sure. I kind of like that though - ground battles should be uncertain.
