Helo ammo

The new Cold War turned hot wargame from On Target Simulations, now expanded with the Player's Edition! Choose the NATO or Soviet forces in one of many scenarios or two linked campaigns. No effort was spared to model modern warfare realistically, including armor, infantry, helicopters, air support, artillery, electronic warfare, chemical and nuclear weapons. An innovative new asynchronous turn order means that OODA loops and various effects on C3 are accurately modeled as never before.

Helo ammo

Post by pinky »

So first, psyched I came across this game - was a TacOps player as a teenager (that kind of nerd...) this is pretty amazing.

Anyways was trying out Third Herd, and managed to have a single AH-64 section kill 100 OPFOR without resupply. I get that the count includes what the APCs were carrying but just some food for thought.

Much thanks.

PS If anyone remembers the global wargame that a bunch of TacOps and Harpoon players put together...Command and Flashpoint seem to be begging for a Matrix rehash

Supply/resupply is being looked at. It seems to have slipped a cog. Should be a fix in the next update.

Good Hunting.

Don't have this yet, but she is on my list..............but as to AH-64, your single section (2 AH64 IIRC) depending on load out would have 32 Hellfire missiles, or 16 Hellfire and 48-72 2.75 rockets along with the basic load of 30mm gun ammo.

Easily enough to clobber that many casualties, IIRC, the AH-64 in a WW3 environment was supposed to "pay for itself" on the first mission with 16 Hellfire killing 16 MBT. AH-64 is a evil chopper and I for one am glad she was always on my side.
