Sgt Homer Posted March 17, 2001 Share Posted March 17, 2001 If I am about to ask a blantantly obvious question then I apologise. I have Pioneers in my force (computer picked my units in a PBEM game). What use are their demolition charges? And how do I use them? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtweasle Posted March 17, 2001 Share Posted March 17, 2001 The Pioneer is the German equivalent of a US Combat Engineer. They can clear mines if the conditions are favorable. Not sure about barbed wire, but they cannot clear a roadblock. Their Demo charges can take out a tank or halftrack, a bunker or Pill Box from behind. They will throw the demo charge a short distance when they "think" they have a viable target on their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lah Posted March 19, 2001 Share Posted March 19, 2001 They are handy in towns too, clearing a building Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
