Re: Killing Infantry
By the way, while we're on the topic of infantry combat, let me say I'm impressed with dismounts in WinSPMBT. Watching those Marines in the Obong-ni Ridge scenario duke it out with T-34s in adjacent hexes and actually holding their own, that was impressive. On the receiving end, I like the fact that my tanks being ambushed by hidden infantry in adjacent hexes don't automatically result in my tanks being killed. That part of SP3 was a royal pain...I mean, they only had HAND GRENADES. I can't remember where I read it, perhaps it was Andy Gailey in the help file for Kobhack, but it was said that infantry WILL find a way to take out unescorted tanks that blunder into an infantry ambush (of course, having LAWs/RPGs would improve their odds, but even with just grenades there was a very good chance your tank would be toast). Now, SP3 was platoon-based, so your poor multi-tank unit might get reduced to a single survivor in one move! That's a kick in the crotch I don't miss
