phil stanbridge Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 I thought I'd have a crack at an infantry v german combined to see how I fair. I chose a tiny 300 point ME British Airborne v the rest of the world and set my men to work. I was quite amazed to see that in the first turn my regular sniper took out what was spotted as a "light tank". The crew clearly bailed at the end of the turn and the vehicle is reported as abandonned. I've never seen this before in all my years playing CM. It's likely that is was just a HT rather than a light tank, but it's still impressive. I have a screenie taken just after the turn if anyone would like to see.

Dschugaschwili Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 This must have been a Hotchkiss. It only has a 2-man crew, so the tank effectively becomes unusable with one crew casualty. So the remaining crew member abandons the tank. Dschugaschwili Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcm1947 Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 Yes that is cool. I guess that's why we have sharpshooters? Well, that and the gamey practice of using them as scouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
