Easy question from a Demo player without manual

[putumayo]

Hello,

Something I don't understand :

When I Target a ennemy tank with a anti-tank team,

instead of attack it with cocktail molotov or RPG, they fire on it with their normal weapons. Why ?

Other question : Is it possible to take back weapons or ammo on dead units or on prisonners ? And if yes, how ?

Thanks a lot, it is hard without any manual.

Q1

A. The tank may be out of range of the Squad AT weapons.

B. If the tank is unbuttoned they could be shooting at the TC

Q2

No

Check the range.

The tank might be too far out so they might just be trying to button it up. You're usually better off just getting them close somehow and letting them do their own thing instead of targeting.

And no, you can't run around collecting ammo, guns, power-ups, or little energy pills.

Thanks to you for the answer. Just one more question .

What are , more or less, the ranges of RPG, grenades and cocktail molotov ?

Thank u again

To be a bit more accurate and a little less sarcastic, YES you can pick up your dead comrades unexpended ammo! It is called "low." When a units ammo is low, it is considered to be scrounging for every round it can find, therefore a unit is never totally ammo-less.

As far as ranges go, in early war they are usually below 100 meters, more often than not in the 25-40 meter range. 30 is a good bet.
