Chupacabra Posted November 20, 2000 Share Posted November 20, 2000 Rigging a bridge to blow was a long process, and wouldn't be something you could do within the time frame of a CM game. I do think it would be interesting to give the defender in attack/assault scenarios the option of blowing bridges, but it certainly wasn't something that engineers could just run up and do. I'm sure there are some ex-sappers on the board who can talk about demolitions ------------------ Grand Poobah of the fresh fire of Heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoffel Posted November 20, 2000 Share Posted November 20, 2000 Artilleryspotters can do that. A 120mm mortarspotter can blow up a wooden bridge ,a 150mm sig gun can do that to. The heavie artillery has no problems with all bridges just make sure the spotter has a good los to it. And airplanes can destroy bridges to when an enemy tank is on it if you are lucky.

busboy Posted November 20, 2000 Share Posted November 20, 2000 Is it possible to destroy the large stone bridges? In various experiments I've not been able to blow 'em. -bus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
