Agua Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Ya, 20mm flak guns. Those things were killer. Good buy on the point system, iIrc. [Edited to include the following:] Doesn't appear on the TO&E, so I'd guess its not in there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freeeman Posted May 17, 2011 Author Share Posted May 17, 2011 that gun was a blast to use, as it was small enough to hide over the creast of roads.. and brutal at short ranges! ok thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadekster88 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Yep, reminds me of Saving Private Ryan. That thing made short work on a bunch of para's iirc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wengart Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 It isn't in due to the lack of proper AAA simulation. Although I wouldn't have any issue with it not engaging aircraft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnergoz Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 It isn't in due to the lack of proper AAA simulation. Although I wouldn't have any issue with it not engaging aircraft. Is that so? Out because of no AAA simulation? I wonder about that. I personally think that the German AA should have been in the game. There were dozens if not hundreds of German light and medium field AA guns in the Normandy area at the time of D-Day and many were used in an anti-infantry or anti-armor role at one time or another. I could see the Allied AA being left out since what there was in the early days of Overlord, was deployed on the beaches to defend the Mulberrys, etc. Not much got inland right away and their first priority would indeed have been AAA coverage of the beaches. But I am curious as to why no German light AA made the cut for this release. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJ62 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 It is a great little gun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequoia Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 As I recall there is a desire to add AA guns and anti Ac fire as well as Flamethrowers/ Flame tanks in the future. Who knows which will come first and when. If I had to guess, and this is pure guess, flamethrowers will get added with the Commonwelth module so we can have Crocodiles and AA Guns with the Market Garden Module. No promises have been made by Battlefront though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can probably count on two hands the # of times I used it for AA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
