Jaeger Jonzo Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Do these guys work as assault engineers in cmfi? Ie can they clear mines like engineers? Also, can they clear obstacles, blow up bunkers etc as they are equipped with demo charges. In cmbn I would be using them to blow holes in bocage but the historical scenario I'm fighting, has me equipped with numerous breach teams, which leads me to believe they are there for a purpose or specific role. Ps..can minefields be pre blasted with demo charges by targetting the ground where mines have spotted? Or can minefields be triggered with mortar bombardments? Thanks in advance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or can minefields be triggered with mortar bombardments? Not exactly what you are looking for, but form the wiki: Minefields can be neutralized by heavy artillery (150mm+), if it scores a direct hit. Minefields can be neutralized by a blast from a demo charge, although due to the game's limitations, a blast can only be performed if there is some blastable obstacle (such as wire) in the action spot. http://combatmission.wikia.com/wiki/Mine 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaeger Jonzo Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 Thanks simast. I was thinking I had the breach teams for a reason as I am conducting a battalion assault on a high ground defense line, but perhaps they are just part of the make up of a US inf battalion? I also wondered if they are blessed with better mine spotting abilities? As currently I am only finding mines when my men step on them! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Thanks simast.

Dont think so. They're probably just scenario designer whim to give you options of making entry to buildings or crossing high walls. I also wondered if they are blessed with better mine spotting abilities? As currently I am only finding mines when my men step on them! I think only troops designated "Engineer" (as in the unit display panes) have better mine spotting abilities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
