Doghouse Reily Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 I seem to been having trouble close assaulting anything at all. I have tried to CA bunkers and pillboxes to tanks and halftraks. All I get is dead or broken eng.,is there a special order that I am missing. Thanks in advance Doghouse Reily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 Try to get your squad behind the pillbox (use smoke for cover) then it soon will be toast. For tanks/halftracks use multiple squads and surround him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACTOR Posted April 23, 2001 Share Posted April 23, 2001 Remember close means CLOSE. You need to be within 20m or so to be really effective in close assualts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyrene Posted April 24, 2001 Share Posted April 24, 2001 Actor, you can actually be too close. I've seen my squads throw demo charges clear over tanks and to the other side, damaging nothing but their egos. The sweet spot does seem to be 25 to 20m Gyrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That kind of sucks. I haven't seen it happen. I can't imagine how anybody could miss a tank up close (except maybe a West Palm Beach voter ), let alone a trained demolition engineer... I suppose you might point out that they're under fire, but still... If you haven't had the chance, go spend some time standing near an actual tank one day. Even "little" ones are like mini-van sized.

Yaba Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 I can confirm with Gryene. I have seen my demo charges going quite wide of the mark. Still, the range is definately limmited so you had better get in close... Yaba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
