I just bought BS but it will take some time before I play Russia. I am a seventy-two-year-old retiree and the modern games are a challenge finding out how to use all the fancy stuff. Should have suck with WW2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's one of the reasons have gotten a bit bored with the CM2 system. Fortunately, there are a very few xnt designers who have designed games to thwart the above simple approach so one can still be challenged. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have now a UAV and the operator can use it with a 155mm Paladin at the same time. Tanks have thermals which spot a sniper right away the moment the twit fires. The boots on the ground can be more effective than a German 88 vs a Sherman. I really study the artillery tactics more; light missions are very effective in conjunction with a UAV operated by the observer. Soviet tanks fire Laser Guided munitions from the main gun and US tanks receive an early warning. I buy similar but not the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 What I have found is that regardless of the munitions the same tactics/strategies work for all eras. An asset is still an asset regardless of era. The era doesn't make much difference to the overall tactic/strategy. One "simply" has to locate and destroy the enemy's primary assets asap. UAV's and modern optics etc can make that easier. Generally have found that tanks are very fragile/vulnerable (in the game at least) and become primarily useful after the enemy's AT and ATGM assets are neutralized. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM Very true. Maybe Charlie and his Orchestra doing their verson of "South of the Border" would work. Although most of their stuff was about Churchill, there were a few where Roosevelt got a mention. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
