Erwin Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 What defensive properties do they have? Or, are they merely cosmetic? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoat Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 They offer both cover and concealment. Units lying down behind the wall have an exposure of 0%, while those upright behind the wall will see incoming firepower reduced by 70%. You should note that the center of the sandbag emplacement is open ground and will do you little good. Place your troops close behind the walls to obatin the effects. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 Thanks. What page is that on in the manual. All I could fine is this (which is not that helpful re effects): Sandbags Sandbags represent prepared fighting and firing positions, which can be used by infantry, guns and vehicles alike. As hasty defensive positions (piling up sandbags is done quicker than digging trench systems) or whenever rocky ground prevented digging, these were encountered often in Africa and Italy. Being terrain tiles, sandbags can only be placed by the scenario/map designer, and cannot be moved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
