Carrier Rifle Sections

[John Given]

I agree about the german engineers - early war, they are devastating to armor. :conf: There should be a difference in their effectiveness as the war progresses. Must have been a lazy programmer. :rolleyes:

I disagree about the russkie AT platoons though. Even though they have no assault factor and have a lower defense strength than other russian infantry, their specialty is killing light armor. :smg: In a pinch, they can kill heavier armor, but you have to turn off op-fire and shoot the rear armor of the enemy (this is the perfect armor ambush unit). Also, they are only worth 2 victory points per sp, making them a decent spotting unit. I tend to think of them as a russian carrier rifle platoon, as max platoon size is a smallish 4 sp.

I'm not sure about the volksturm though - can't remember ever playing those.
