How do you defeat the Arab angry mob when playing against human opponents?
My opponent tends to use them to "close assault" my troops and score points for getting his own angry mob killed.
It seems that there is no way to prevent my human opponent to "abuse" with his angry mob.
Any idea? or there should be a software fix to prevent angry mob from "close assault"?

Intriguing... was anything specific about it in the scenario description? If not, the only thing I can suggest at present are house-rules, Eric.

I'm trying to recall which scenario has Angry Mob's in it.
I suspect it was one of the ones converted from Divided Ground.
Looking at the specs of the Angry Mob, they have an assault factor of 1, enough to throw themselves against your troops and die needlessly. It should be 0.
This will be corrected in a future UPDATE.

I think it's the intifada scenario.

Ah yes, one of the converted scenarios.

There is another scenario with angry mob. The Ashqelon Research Center. Again, my human opponent is using his angry mob in the coastal town to close assault my troops and tanks. He managed to score points on killing an IDF Sherman and few of his own mobs......talking about suicide squad on steroid [X(]! I had to send some troops there to act as a blockade. Otherwise, he is going after my artillery positions in the rear next. (sorry for the scenario spoiler)
