Europe 85 differences from PzC? - bwv - 12-15-2012 just ordered Danube 85 after playing alot of PzC what are some key things in terms of differences in tactics that I should bear in mind? I also heard there is a gamey tactic of placing artillery-launched mines to isolate an opponent before an assault, is this right? RE: Europe 85 differences from PzC? - fastphil - 12-15-2012 helicopters(stay on map), chemical weapons, Antitank Missiles, artillery fired mines, many more units with amphib capability, signet. NATO wins a shooting war and Russians win in CA. Disruption still a mission kill. RE: Europe 85 differences from PzC? - Aditia Holdem - 12-16-2012 IMO the following are huge: - Speed. The base speed of divisions is way, way faster. If you do not have a solid position, be ready to get outflanked very rapidly. - Helicopters. Make sure to have a look at house rules, as a lot of gamey tactics are available with them. In my current game we have allowed using helos as CAS spotters, making rear areas not safe for units to be in t-mode. Not sure if this usually banned in house rules. Even with house rules, helos are a poweful asset if used correctly. - Artillery mines. You have a limited supply of these, so make sure that when you use them, there is a very good reason for it. RE: Europe 85 differences from PzC? - JDR Dragoon - 12-19-2012 Infantry is also more resilient to armor and usually have a respectable (and even good) hard attack value. Oh, and WMD as well. Tactical Nukes work a treat to bust an entire enemy stack and makes a satisfying sound to boot :)
