Noob Questions

Post by Death Method »

1) How do i get my infantry to lay smoke? When i hit the prescribed 'd' key nothing happens...

2) Could someone recommend to me what maps i should try after the little tuturiol map. I keep stumbling into maps that are a little overwhelming for me at this point. I have V.8.1

Each scenario has a time of play - choose a short one.

Try 027 for a start

Death Method, the 'd' key is for launching vehicle's smoke dischargers. Use the 'x' key followed with direction for infantry smoke. Assuming your infantry unit still has smoke grenades [;)]

Hey Ol_Dog,

Thx for the suggestion, I have a little question about 027.

What is the best way to spot that AT piece guarding the main road to the cadet school and then flush it out?? I laid up smoke screens and tried a pincer on the town but ran out of time.

If you attack with your infantry down both sides of the road, when they get to the walls, the will see and be able to attack the ATG. Same when you go down the rows of houses further South.

Use your infantry to find targets and destroy ATGs, use your tanks to destroy MGs and Tanks.
