Default Re: 106 RCL Jeeps tactics

Maybe a big motorized infantry support weapon? They can knock out APCs too.
And tanks admitedly modern stuff needs a flank shot but thats not hard in a city enviroment. Even if all it achieves is getting his attention it can offer a flank to another unit or IF it hits suppresion can spoil his shot.
Modern times though most countries that have are in Africa or the Middle East how they ever use them in open spaces is beyond me, Central Europe is doable in the 70s as are the jungles of Asia & South America so long as the person does not plonk arty on you.
Still feel like you are in charge of a bunch of suicide junkies though prefer an AC for its speed & resistance to small arms fire & lug my RCLs on foot.

Another thing to try is Russian ATGs very expensive but cheaper & smaller than a tank. Drawback no TI on the ones with a move of 3 but unlike RCLs they do hit things regulary.
Fire & move it off that hill or wherever before smoke takes it out of play, need to be setup to engage at range so locating them is hard. Its diffrent to using WW2 ATGs because of the range you can engage at more like a multi shot ATGM. Once seen though it will die quickly to autocannons & main guns but so can a tank to the later.
