Dbroe Posted January 12, 2001 Share Posted January 12, 2001 Is the game missing them or are there just an elite sqd. Readily will I display the intestinal fortitude required to fight on to the Ranger objective and complete the mission,though I be the lone survivor. last stanza of Ranger creed.

Jeff Heidman Posted January 12, 2001 Share Posted January 12, 2001 No, this was discussed. While a Ranger is not really a regular elite or crack rifle squad, BTS decided not to model them because there was not enough of them in combat to justify doinbg so.

While their training is more intense and specialized than the "regular" infantry, their TOE doesn't differ significantly from a standard rifle squad. Rangers were not (and are not now) Special Forces or Commandos --- they are assault troops (think combination of Marines / Airborne / SS Troopers) usually brought in to crack a strongpoint or spearhead an attack.
