Walker Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 Excuse me for asking, and I do so only after reading some sharp statements on this board regarding the deployment of large numbers of Jeep MGs simultaneously in an offensive role, and also because I am still a lowly Junior Member, but would the use of three Halftracks each loaded with two .50 cal MGs and employed in a group as instant massive firepower providers, plus a Utility Vehicle with an appropriate HQ who need not even disembark (= 10 HMGs deployed and firing away within less than a minute), be considered bad form?

WWB Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 That would be rather historically accurate. The US Army loved using the massed firepower of HTs on any sniper dumb enough to take a pot shot at a column. The 'Gamey Jeep Recon' thread you probably saw regards people sending fast moving jeeps thru enemy lines on suicide missions to find hidden units.

Gen-x87H Posted July 18, 2001 Share Posted July 18, 2001 Ah yes my old TCP\IP partner used to just shoot my platoons into hell with those damn HTs. Until my Panthers would role up and make them scatter But damn they hurt! Gen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
