Sargento Garcia Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 The history begins in 1943 some part in Finland. QB. Allied with some armor and arty support against a group of Jaakari with some tanketes and time to dig themselves on a reverse slope; Assault Odds and Human pick forces for both sides. I select a compact and well balanced attack group and kick the AI's ass really nice. Some minutes before the end of the exercise and with some flags already in Allied Star, my troops have encercled some poor guys in a small forest, two T-34/57 are in their way close-assaulting from both sides of the woods, it is all by the book and my iMac DV G3 has frozen only once since the first "Go". As I am watching closely (always curious to see the surrender moments) I realize that Ser Glebov' Tank is shooting round after round to the encercled enemy, but all of them are AP. With still 13 canister rounds in the rack, one hand protecting the fumes of powder from entering his eyes and with half a bottle of finnish vodka in the other he is shouting to his men: YES! and, GO! LOAD FASTER!MORE TO THE LEFT I'D SAY! He only stops to drink again and in his eyes a strange ligth begin to appears. The turn ends an I order Glebov to start area firing the woods and stop drinking dry, otherwise he gets court martialed in Siberie. Next turn Canister rounds begin to fall and five enemy men surrender almost inmediatly. Question: Is it always like you have to order area fire to get canister answers? Evidence: Two saved files from the assault. Some comments? Juan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterGoodale Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Yeah it always bugs the living hell out of me that I can't tell the tank to fire cannister rounds when it's obvious they are the best ammo for the situation. Very irritating. :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargento Garcia Posted February 5, 2003 Author Share Posted February 5, 2003 In fact you can. Just order area fire besides the ennemy position. Who is Bill? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Phosphorus Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 But if you area fire, won't the tank just use HE rounds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargento Garcia Posted February 5, 2003 Author Share Posted February 5, 2003 I don't know, any HE left in my tanks, I did a lot of area firing before the close assault. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
