Combat Engineers

Post by Deathtreader »

Hi all,

Other than an accelerated rate of clearing minefields, do combat engineers have any special attributes?? They can't repair bridges but are they providing a positive modifier in an assault on any sort of fortified position (they're historical role) or sumething along those lines??

So we're at war with the Russkies eh?? I suppose we really ought to invade or something. (Lonnnng pause while studying the map)
Hmmmm... big place ain't it??

They build bridges and blow bridges.

Their chances of blowing bridges are much higher than other units.

Some engineers are restricted to engineering tasks - but some have attack and shock vales and can be used in attack and defence.

Some engineers are elite so they add the elite bonus to an attack.

Always keem 'em handy and you sometimes never know when you might need them.
