Quick Battle Question

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

I've been playing around with the Quick Battles the past few days, and I was wondering if there's any way to get an infantry-only force.

I started up a tiny Forest QB, select Heavy Infantry/Heavy Infantry as my force type, and I get 4 Abrams tanks as my force when the game starts. I went back after the game and tried selecting Heavy Infantry/Armor and got the exact same thing (4 Abrams). The only other type of Infantry I see is Stryker, which I'm assuming is going to give me Strykers also.

Is there any way to generate infantry-only battles? Also how are 4 Abrams tanks considered a "Heavy Infantry" force?

take the RED side, select infantry, any kind, and you have no vehicles or maybe recon BRDMs or UAZ´s if you are unlucky.

a few tries do the trick mostly.

BUT; you, more or less, will get "pawned" by the infantry abrams coming after you ;)

also you are allready to 50% - 70% out of ammo when you start the game, wich isnt fun but hey, these are supposed to suck :rolleyes:

Yeah, there are a lot of problems with force selection with quick battles. At the moment, there ONLY way to get Infantry on Infantry action is to have two Red forces battle it out and that's not for everybody.

I guess Battlefront want the QB force selector to generate realistic formations only. Of course, sometimes, especially with small forces, it does give you some WEIRD formations. I once got a force of Stryker Gun vehicles and nothing else.

I would imagine that the Syrians have some purely infantry forces (with trucks but they're not in the game yet). But the US without vehicles? I'm sure the real Gropo's on this forum can tell you how often that happens outside of MOUT.

For Blue force, selecting Stryker Infantry will give you the best results. The Stryker option will give you infantry with their Strykers and works for QBs of any size against any Syrian force as long as YOU are playing Blue. AI US infantry can't use javelins and so it's easy to slaughter a Stryker force with just a couple of T-55s.
