    a bit of an addendum as i found some things while playing:
    on the field gun: i meant 2100 meters, not 2100 kilometers. lol
    Also, the militia’s MBT is a T-62, not a M-62
    15:10 You absolutely can destroy a tank engine with a rifle grenade. it just needs to be hit from above
    the FN FAL has no plume of smoke that comes from the launched grenade like the RPG or other shoulder based launchers do.
    someone also pointed out that AT grenades are great for destroying emplacements and radios! pretty damn useful, shame i did not think of this before
    someone has claimed the SPG-9 has more penetration than the field gun, i have not seen this in any meaningful way, but it could be true for all i know.
    On the ambusher rifle grenadier, after playing the role a bit, I’ve changed my mind on some things. In practice, I do not think the ambusher is really a ambushing role. I believe that it is best suited as close range fire support. And is absolutely deadly in the right hands still. It overall still gives a firepower edge in the infantry department over other factions.
    The camo nets are a useful tool in concept, but fail in practice. While they still can be useful camo in medium to long range encounters, I find in short range enemies are all too eager to blast a camo net the second they lay eyes on one. The camo net is very easy to identify close up as well, and it can be difficult to see approaching enemies from inside the camo net without exposing yourself. It still can have some utility at range as I said before, and you can curb it’s distinct shape by placing it in an actual bush, although this may hinder your line of sight.

It is why I am really sad that factions like Britain, the PLAMC, the other Chinese marine thing, aren't quite as good or fun as they could be. I really hope that they rework the Chinese Marine faction and remove that third weird "Chinese marines but better camo" faction. I also think that the UK needs a rework to be more fun. Maybe allow for us to use both sights on their gun?
      Also we need more factions that don't boil down to "US and Russia". Things like France, Germany, Algeria, African Warlords, Cartels, Argentina, Japan, South Korea, North Korea, an Iran using indigenous weapons and vehicles, Belgium etc. I especially want more fictional irregular factions.

    @Rob-zz7bq 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +22

    Me and my buddies have found an incredibly effective strat for the militia using the UB-32 emplacements:
    We place a fob as far away from a the second or third enemy point as possible about 20-25 minutes into the game, trying to be 1600-1900 meters away from it (just to give us a little room for error). Then we build 2 ub-32's and fire them in volleys each emplacement firing 30 seconds after the first one is done firing. This means almost constant saturation around the point where needed.
    This strat only requires 3 people and some setup, if we do 2 ammo runs before we start firing with a big logi and have one of the squadmates continously drive back and forth to supply 3000 ammo we can basically keep this up non stop. We have gotten such redicilous kills with it and the enemy always complains about ''these bloody grad strikes are op'' when its really just 3 dudes, two rocket pods and some preperation and coordination with friendly squads on the objective.
    Its such a powerfull and fun strat, the most kill I have gotten so far with it was when I was on Harju and we had a defense point on the bunker area, our team was barely keeping them at bay before we started firing from 1900 meters away, pretty close to our spawn as our spawn was in the top right of the map and we where able to place the radio quite close to it. I got a whoping 47 downs and 34 kills. My buddy had 28 downs and 23 kills as he was the one that fired after me, basically being clean up crew or catching the people that stayed back for the first rocket barrage. At some point we even had the commander helping us by spotting enemy pushes with his drone and then calling it out to us to be striked XD, no mortar strikes or grads required.
    Only downside of the strat is that you do have to be patient and friendly fire will almost inevitably happen when danger close gets called in, but its tons of fun to see the ALL chat just light up with the enemy team complaining.

  • @bobthebutler

    Tip! Put your grenadier scope to 100m point directly up with your rifle and FIRE! Enjoy Mortaring with a grenadier kit. (some servers don't allow looking directly up so may not work on all servers)
    100m ranging = 95m-100m mortar effect
    50m ranging = 140m-145m mortar effect
    150m-300m etc doesn't work! The grenadier kit will fire BEHIND you, so be wary to not hit your own team if you are using anything else than 50-100 Meter ranging
    Also works with rifle grenade!
    80m ranging = 105-110 mortar effect
    60m ranging = 150m-160m mortar effect
    40m ranging = Gives out pretty much same range as 60m ranging!
    (I had made this comment in Moni's Grenadier #shorts video but i will also paste this here since i think this is ESPECIALLY helpful for militias use of normal grenadier kits and their rifle grenade kits)

      More rifle grenade tips
      Unlike RPGs it doesn’t emit a plume of smoke after you fire it. This makes it really good at ambushing vehicles as they won’t be able to find you easily if you’re concealed
      Fragmentation rifle grenades have a much bigger lethal radius than the under barrel grenade launchers. I believe it’s similar to that of a tanks he round which is funny. Just imagine you’re shooting tank rounds

    Hey Moni nice video, I’m a long time player here, and after the militia got their update, been a big fan of them. You are right, people have a tendency to play the faction incorrectly. The ub32 and the ZIS 3 anti tank cannon is by far my favorite addition to the faction. Mostly for the fact that I’ve been asking for an anti tank cannon ever since I saw post scriptum have them haha. But the way to use these emplacements is where people fail to understand stand. For example, yes the UB-32 is a one per fob emplacement, kills 300 ammo per 32 rockets and reloads in about 42 seconds, (last time I checked) but creating multiple fobs in close proximity with a dedicated large loggie truck and you can be a absolute menace to the enemy team. On the map Gorodok for example, the layer where the militia spawns on the right side of the map and the enemy team on the left is a perfect example of when to use the UB-32. By placing 4 fobs in a diamond shape pattern an being able to range about 75% of them map. You would be shooting roughly 128 rockets, at 1200 ammo, every 42 seconds, with a 50m kill radius. This can either stop and entire team push or delay the enemy from sitting in one spot for to long. Our best game we had in that my squad of 4 had a collective kill count of roughly 132 downs. Add the commander role and you got a drone UAV. The ZIS 3 gun is meant to be placed in hard to see spots with great view. Putting them out in the open can greatly cause yourself to skyline which makes it easier to see you. That AT gun can effectively kill just about every vehicle in the game other than MBT’s. It’s a huge asset when used correctly. Thought you can track and engine tanks. But other than that I would just smoke and frag them to kill the dismounted crewman.

Our guys built fire fob with, I believe two guns higher in the mountains to the south. Enemy just kept rolling Leopards to attack the point, and every time got wrecked by the field guns.

      Respectfully, the Zis 3 is the perfect example of something just being 'cool'. It literally does the same damage as the SPG while having worse pen, it's also more expensive to build and significantly harder to hide. The upside of it is the rounds land faster making it easier to hit moving targets, but this really isn't a problem if you are very used to using SPGs. Zis 3 is stupidly overrated.

    Nice guide and hype up for imf!
    Two major mining corrections at 19:46 though:
    - You can shovel the mines to hide them or remove them. This also protects them from mortar/arty damage.
    - Checkerboard is useless since the update. While it does maximize chances of hitting a vehicle, all 3 mines will set each other of, but only the one that got hit will count and do damage, wasting the others. Therefore, spread them out at least 5m apart along/diagonally on the road if you really want to maximise hit probability, or preferrably, just lay them out along a long route/around a point to increase chances. You may then also avoid putting them in the center/edge of a road, 95% drive in the middle of a road, so focus on the used, darker tire paths. Yes there are people countering this, but you don't have to waste a third of your mines and therefore time for 5% of the time someone actually remembers this.
    Another secret but epic option for tight strategic spots or when armor is potentially going to circle an objective, is to put up to 4 mines as close together as they can be along the road. If a vehicle runs them, all of them are set off by the tire/track, stacking the damage like pre update. They go off like an IED. Scatter them as pairs of 2 to make an APC onehit for AT while maintaning a good hit probability, 3 for instakilling most APCs and 4 to onehit a tank on a dedicated tank ambush or if you want to make a statement.
    Fun facts:
    - 3 or 4 mines will kill an apc or tank respectively, but this may also remove the hull. If you want to farm kills, this is perfect because the spot will be cleared to place more for the next victim, so in chokepoints i'd go for a quad mine. If however you want to block a chokepoint with the wreck afterwards, use 2 mines to be safe.
    - You can use mines as powerful C4 standin. Drop them inside tracks/tires. If a tank shoots, it rocks back and they go off. If you first put a C4 on the track/vehicle, or a track/tire gets blown up, the vic moves and sets off the mines.
    In a lot more detail:
    Mine placement comes down to the question if you want to deny access to a place on a first push like along a single tight corridor/gate, or impede movement over time like on logi routes and inside caps.
    Vehicles will more often enter at some place, circle objectives for minutes, then return on the same route they came in. Hitting them on the first pass is less important than having multiple individual interference points in a tight block, because there your team can fight back. Therefore, on defence points with many entrances, or if the enemy has fast moving APCs or tend to wolfpack, scatter the mines around/inside a point and close to habs to impede vehicles doing hit and runs, increasing/stacking individual mine hits instead of wasting them in bunch on otherwise unattended entrance routes. It gives your AT more places and less running/regaining stamina to intercept and finish the immobilized vic on a silver plate. It also ensures you can place all mines in the most prominent lane/path, like on a narrow road or small intersections, maximising the hit rate for each mine and saving you running/setup time near an ammo crate.

    Missed pro to the FAL HEAT grenades is no massive plume of smoke from firing it, it does make it harder to spot you right after you fire.
    Also good tip is pick your fights as best you can, and especially on wooded maps, move slow and scan your surroundings and listen, you can sneak up on people really easily especially with how well camouflaged militia uniforms are.

    Squad being a sort of mil-sim, it makes sense for the anti tank grenades to not be that strong. They really don´t do much towards tank IRL either. Tanks is a different kind of beast especially western ones like the german leopard. Even with AT rounds to a CG you´d still want at least 3-5 hits before the tank is out.

    4:15 - The song playing is "Tamo Daleko" originally written on a Greece island of Corfu back in WW1 when Serbia had to withdraw through Albanian mountains towards the Adriatic sea where Allied forces organized an extraction. They were being pushed from three sides by the Austro-Hungarian, German and Bulgarian forces after winning an epic battle of Kolubara field.
    Even though on retreat, Serbian prime minister Nikola Pasic has sent a telegram to allied forces saying: "Even though Serbia found itself in a difficult position, even though it can still get into an even worse position, it is determined to go to the end in the fight against the invaders, loyally and faithfully with its Allies, it will endure the entire war, which will end with the defeat of the enemy."
    The Serbian army decided to retreat through only available route, the Albanian mountains. If you thought famine and severe cold were enough, Serbian army was also being picked apart by Albanian groups. You see, even though Albanian president gave a green light to Serbian retreat, many Albanians have seen this as an opportunity to beat down weakened Serbian forces and get a pay back for their past actions. They picked apart the weakened forces like jackals, killing and looting everyone that strayed.
    Many have died, official reports say 243.877 people. But, ultimately as Nikola Pasic has promised, Serbian forces recuperated and fought back against the Axis forces with the Allies on the Macedonian Front. Since there were so many deaths, Serbians had to "bury" their dead in the water, and appropriately named the place "Blue Tomb".
    Below, I will paste translated version of the song "Tamo Daleko - There, Far Away"
    "There far, far from the sea,
    My village is there, Serbia is there.
    My village is there, Serbia is there.
    Far away, where lemon yellow blooms,
    There was the only way for the Serbian army.
    There was the only way for the Serbian army.
    Far away, where the white lily blooms,
    There, father and son gave their lives together.
    There, father and son gave their lives together.
    Where Morava travels quietly,
    My icon remains there, and my baptismal glory.
    My icon remains there, and my baptismal glory.
    Where Timok greets Veljko's town,
    They burned my church there, where I got married young.
    They burned my church there, where I got married young.
    Without a homeland, I lived in Corfu,
    But I proudly shouted, Long live Serbia!
    But I proudly shouted, Long live Serbia!"
    Still gives me chills, still brings tears to my eyes.

    The drouge chute on the anti-tank grenade was intended to cause top attacks where the armor was thinnest. It really should do mobility damage that does sound like a bug. Iraqi resistance would sling these things at Humvees as they drove by them.

    Iregs have always been my favorite team. Best team to have for invasion defense. Every building becomes a super fob. Every other man has AT capabilities. Vehicles aren’t tough but can hit and run. A four man squad with a grad and a mortar/ub32 fob can go untouched while raining hell. Easily one of the best teams. But guys who like to tank and only tank think they are useless.

    FAL is so slept on. It's flatness is second to none, you can head tap at 250m and still see the target in the irons. Also the at grenades are ment for top down attack, you're supposed to throw it over top the vic, not at it. 😂

    100% right, I used to play a lot of PR back in the day, one thing I loved about it is that one match I'd be para-dropping into Siberia as German paratroopers while the next I'd be fighting street to street as Russian infantry in Grozny taking fire from what felt like every window in the city.
    Playing an unconventional force isn't just different, it's fun, and an excuse to completely screw up any plans the enemy had because they didn't factor in that, no, you're not going to drive a tank down that road, you're going to saturate it with mortars then madmax 5 technicals through the barricade while SL blasts hardbass over local comms, because you don't give a shit if it works, you give a shit that it's gonna look cool as hell and be an absolute blast.

    appreciate the evangelization. People complain about the Turks and then proceed to leave armor at the base and play them like the Americans.

I play IFVs a lot and if the other team is IMF I will typically go infantry because they are a nightmare for any armor in urban environments and on points.
