fdevassy Posted November 11, 2000 Share Posted November 11, 2000 I don't know if you remember but a couple of weeks back i posted saying I must be a newbie cause i could be the first scenario in the demo called Close Encounter. Well many of you gave me suggestions. And i have to say they helped immensly. I was able to beat that 40 turn mission in 11 turns. And this time none of my tanks were knocked out. Although one got "stuck" on the way. I don't know how to get the tank out. Anyway i took your advice of not just sending the tanks in without infantry support. Now that i think of it that was so stupid of me to send em in without cover. Plus this time i attacked the Panzerschrek guys first so that they couldn't take out my armor. I gotta tell ya those tanks do so much damage to the other guys. man it was fun to see the other sides' morale down and broken. Much better than having my troops in that condition.

Stoffel Posted November 11, 2000 Share Posted November 11, 2000 Their is a way to unbog them. I give them a stop order than a rotate order(90 degrees)and a fast move order to that direction. Won't work everytime though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarmo Posted November 12, 2000 Share Posted November 12, 2000 Official word is, no orders you give affect tanks chances of unbogging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rune Posted November 12, 2000 Share Posted November 12, 2000 Once you get the full game, drop me a line. I will send you one of my works of evilness, Chance Encounter II. Rune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Mauldin Posted November 12, 2000 Share Posted November 12, 2000 You can leave them alone and they will unbog themselves sometimes (that is if they have a move command already). However, remember once it says "Immobilized" you are stuck there. ------------------ It wasn't MY company..It was the Armys' or so they told me.

Kingfish Posted November 12, 2000 Share Posted November 12, 2000 fdevassy, The best way to prevent tanks from bogging is to assign a squad of combat engineers to each tank, and have them lay an asphalt road ahead of the tank as it advances forward into battle. During battles in heavy fog or at night I recommend you use 2 squads, the second one will install reflectors on each side of the road. Good luck ------------------ ...This is Romeo-Foxtrot, shall we dance?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted November 12, 2000 Share Posted November 12, 2000 Do those engineers use Cat D12's or something smaller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Gustav Posted November 12, 2000 Share Posted November 12, 2000 Once you get the full game, you will encounter wet, snow and mud terrain. NEVER EVER move your tanks faster than "hunt" on these ground conditions, because they will bog down for sure if you do. And stick to the roads whenever possible. ------------------ No one but the enemy will tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. -Ender's Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
