jdmorse Posted May 12, 2000 Share Posted May 12, 2000 I was wondering what would be the reccomended tactic for infantry assults against armor. Not the 'zooks or 'schrecks but squad assaults, with at least chance of knocking out tank or half track. How close do you have to be so that squad uses weapons other than rifles?

Stoffel Posted May 13, 2000 Share Posted May 13, 2000 The germans used special amtitank teams ,one man was used as a decoy than the other climbed on a tank and placed a mine under the turret or throwed granates in the turrethatch. You can knock out halftracks with handgranates if you can get in throwing distance since they don't had a roof. That is all I can think off. Anyone with other ideas?

Moon Posted May 13, 2000 Share Posted May 13, 2000 If your squads don't have any AT weapons like Panzerschrecks or Rifle grenades which they can use from some distance, the only option you have is to get as close to the enemy tank as possible and pray. A handgrenade might be enough to at least damage the tank and make the crew bail (even if the tank is buttoned up), but a demo charge or gammon bomb are better. Oh, and don't get shot...
