Decent Firing Ranges


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, just have a quick question about anti-tank gun teams and bazooka carriers. The unit info for a bazooka states 100m, but if you set this range in a covering arc the poor bastard ends up dead very quickly and normally doesnt even get to fire off a round. Am I reading this wrong or what? Anyone with some insite on this please reply. Thanks

I'm assuming you mean Panzerfaust teams.

Stay hidden in cover i.e. woods, bulidings & no armoured unit should be able to spot your tank hunters.

Be wary of defending infantry however.

I tend to set cover arcs which are very close (40 metres or so) & usually have great success (if I can keep the enemy infantry off my back with mortars & artillery).

The tank has 3 huge advantages:

1.) It has more firepower than a individual squad

2.) It is better protected vs small arms

3.) Close counts with HE

The squads has only 2 advantages

1.) It can hide and surprise

2.) It can cross terrain a tank can't.

Use your advantages, deny the tank its advantages. And you can only achieve this with stealth and by killing the tank before it can fire at your squad.

Other tips:

The projectile is very slow - thus stationary targets are much easier to hit than mobile ones.

The probatility to hit is low. It gets much bigger if the range closes.

Do not try to fire from within buildings - backblast!

Patience.

Button the tank. If you open up with rifles to button the tank, you will get spotted. Let somebody else shoot to button the tank before you attack it.

Keep enemy inf at bay.
