PapaD Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Hello everyone, I'm still with the 3.x engine. Is it possible to share ammo between squads? If not, is it in 4.0? Happy shelling, PapaD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they have to remain in proximity to each other. I believe within two action squares (16m) because you cannot use a command to move ammo between the squads what will happen is when a member of the squad without spare ammo runs out of ammo in their weapon they will automatically borrow a new clip from the close by squad and resume firing. Then when that clip is empty they will borrow another one. etc. So, they will never stock up on spare ammo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaD Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Ah, thanks. No need to send in an ammo-carrier from a MG-squad to help replenish a different platoon then. Damn. My heroes best try to leave the houses they held until their ammo ran low. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Oh actually vehicles have ammo that is acquireable. If you load a squad into a truck (or split off a team to get into a carrier or jeep) they can use the acquire command to load up on ammo. That works regardless of the command structure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Oops I just realized you were referring to an ammo carrying team not a bren or universal carrier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
