    The radioman instantly surrendering after hopping out a destroyed BRM and getting showered by rifle fire after is the most realistic thing I've seen in CM

    Oh, they've got no time for glory in the Infantry.
    Oh, they've got no use for praises loudly sung,
    But in every soldier's heart in all the Infantry
    Shines the name, shines the name of Rodger Young.
    Shines the name - Rodger Young,
    Fought and died for the men he marched among.
    To the everlasting glory of the Infantry
    Lives the story of Private Rodger Young.

    ATGMs Remaining: 13 [Numbers are accurate now. TOW teams carry 3 each, plus 2 in the jeep. There are also 3 TOWs in the command jeep that may or may not be usable.]

      Captain David “DC” Clarke checked the grim calculation again. The ATGM hit rate is increasing as the enemy began dashing for the objective. This is turning into a battle his company can win.

    • @d.c.6065
      @d.c.6065 11 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      The hit rate is increasing, but A. it took 3 hits to kill one T-72, and B. about half of the vehicle kills have come from LAWs, not ATGMs. Shoutout to Romitass, for getting the only kill with an M203 (so far).

    I just can't understand why the Soviet player went down the highway. Weren't those trucks baiting AT teams for the main approach? Didn't he know that tow jeeps were spawning in? The highway was a good strategy early game, but that time is gone, and so are 2 tanks and IFV.

      It is much faster to use the highway than the rough ground inside the perimeter.

    Looks like he's going to drive his BMPs right into the engagement zone of the Phantoms. Interesting to see if they managed to do anything in the coming turns.
    Assuming the BMPs don't get killed by TOWs first whilst trying to navigate through the gaps in the wall.

    UH, you mentioned that you playtested this game. Why would you do that? As a scenario designer I completely get the fact that you should test a scenario out, but do you mean that you playtested it once you'd agreed to play? Surely that gives you an unfair advantage? If I play a game against someone (instead of the AI) I won't look at their forces because that's not fair nor realistic

    • @usuallyhapless9481
      @usuallyhapless9481  8 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Well, I made the scenario so... I know exactly what's going on. Luka playtested it as well, so we're about as even as we could get.
      It's a bit of a necessary evil for making sure the scenario is actually going to be interesting (and I haven't ballsed it up somewhere).
      There's also an argument that in reality both sides would have a pretty good idea what they would be up against, so knowing enemy force composition/reinforcement times isn't as skewed as you might think. Plus, obviously, it shifts the emphasis firmly onto what the players choose to do with their toys
