Cpl Steiner Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I posted about this a while ago but since 1.03 the problem still exists. It would be nice if it could be rectified for 1.04. If you select a Syrian Mech Infantry company equipped with BMP-2s (8 seats), it is impossible to fit the 4th platoon into its vehicles. The platoon is basically a Weapons platoon, with 4 MG teams (3 men each) and an HQ (4 men). Although there are seats for all, either the HQ or an MG team has to walk because they can't be split. This problem does not occur for BMP-1 equipped units because they have 9 seats instead of 8. I know this may seem a minor issue but in the modern age of mechanized warfare in which infantry frequently advance into battle mounted rather than dismounted, I think it is important that the whole company can be mounted. Some possible solutions: a) Strip 2 men from the HQ and increase two MG teams from 3 men to 4. Split the HQ in half, forming an HQ and a 2 man team such as an RPG team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelmia Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I usually have the last MG team hitch a ride on the battallion FO UAZ. It's not organic to the company, so it's not a very elegant solution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Catsack Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 It would also be nice if there was a way to fire the cannon, but not the ATGM. Perhaps switching the cannon to the "target light" order would be a good solution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
