DaveDash Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 If you have a man down, and there is a friendly squad close to him, one guy will run next to him and spend the next couple of minutes tending to his wounds - provided they're not pinned. Im not sure what effect this has on your KIA vs WIA, but the body of the soldier dissappears after being taken care of. I thought this was a cool little detail. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkEzra Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 It also can help your score if using Friendly casualties as part of scoring... Here's a pic of the aid station during Chance Encounter battle: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 According to the manual (I think), telling a unit to move before buddy aid's been administered negatively impacts the prospects for the wounded. Much more likely he'll be in the 'dead' category at game's end. On the other hand, a guy giving buddy aid isn't firing his weapon. That can sometimes put you in a difficult situation. You might have to sacrifice the wounded guy to save the rest! Has anyone seen a wounded man go from red base to yellow after buddy aid and get back on his feet? That may just be an 'urban legend'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkEzra Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 It certainly does. Now I have to decide if I am willing to take that Loss to move (slower) or wait (care for wounded) and hope I will have enough time to complete the mission.

Scipio Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I would prefer if we could order this directly; and to have real Medic units!! You can call it stupid, but I have noticed that I really hate to leave my wounded toysoldiers behind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garm Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 As I posted some months ago, a M1133 Medical Evacuation Vehicle would be nice to get wounded out of the action without delaying the rest of the squad. But I must admit that I don't know anything about battlefield medicine although it is a very interesting subject, in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
