Stoffel Posted June 30, 2002 Share Posted June 30, 2002 Indeed it is a nice weapon,I had the privilage of firing the weapon when I was serving in the army. It had a whole range of shells like illumination/anti armor and HE types. It was mainly used for infantry support not anti tank roles. You could not kill a T80 or T 72 with it only from the sides. Normally you would not get that chance I guess Today the weapon is out of the inventory and replaced by the AT4 which is a lot easier to handle and can be thrown away However i think they took away a very good support weapon for our infantry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a real pity the Australian Army doesn't subscribe to Tacops as it is a fantastic training aid, especially for quickly and easily wargaming plans developed to solve tactical problems. Congratulations on a great program. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibsonm Posted July 4, 2002 Share Posted July 4, 2002 Between you covering the spanner gear and me looking after the black hat stuff all that's left is the grunters (pity they are the biggest group). May all your EMEFIX's be simple and your hardstanding be near the pub! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty Jack Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 Yell me, is it possible to simulate a lower-intensity style conflict with TacOPS, such as say, East Timor? I have this feeling that its generally geared towards the American idea that the enemy will basically always speak Russian and use massed armour tactics, am I correct? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorH TacOps Developer Posted July 5, 2002 Share Posted July 5, 2002 The factory provided scenarios are geared mainly toward representing first line enemy forces but you can substitute less capable equipment. It is a somewhat tedious process. If you design a custom scenario for human vs human play you can add whatever equipment you want. >I have this feeling that its generally geared towards the American idea that the enemy will >basically always speak Russian and use massed armour tactics, am I correct? Ahem ... the Cold War is over and the Russians are part of NATO now . [ July 05, 2002, 11:13 AM: Message edited by: MajorH ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
