noxnoctum Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Or is it purely for blowing holes in buildings and bocage? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YankeeDog Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I don't think so, no. However, infantry with demo charges will sometimes use them when close assaulting enemy armor. There is no direct control of this by the player, though. Enemy vehicles can also be damaged by nearby demo blasts. For example, if you order a team to breach a wall and there's an enemy vehicle on the other side, that vehicle might be damaged by the blast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noxnoctum Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 And to close assault enemy armor do I need to put a move command on the enemy AFV like CMx1 or just position them within 10 meters or so and they do it automatically? (what's the range?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c3k Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Automatically, if positioned closely. I don't know the range. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noob Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Automatically, if positioned closely. I don't know the range. Grenades are thrown at 30 metres so try that for satchel charges. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akd Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 No, close assault on tanks with grenades and satchel charges initiates when the infantry are in the same or an adjacent tile to the tank. 10m is probably a good rule of thumb. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting observation, a quick test against a tank with no ammo should clear that one up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sublime Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 They'll use it automatically. I've tried ordering blast commands on tanks, and it didnt work out for me. I've seen it used on a tank before, and I've also seen them tossed about against infantry. Schultz calls them the 'lunch boxes of doom' which is an apt description of how it looks =D I preferred the actual satchel looking graphic from CMBO honestly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noob Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Ok, you can't create a tank with no ammo so this is just a tank being attacked by a Breach Team, at 30 and 15 metres they just use grenades, but within 10 metres they use the charge without setting a blast command, which destroys the tank completely. (I turned smoke off for the first picture) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
