Common Situations
Reconnaissance in a Vehicle
The most common obstacle is a corner. Even around the smallest of curves, there
can be a tank lurking, waiting for you, or a soldier with a panzerfaust. See Fig. 43.
First, place a soldier on the outer side of the curve and send another one through
the terrain. If it is impossible to proceed through the terrain, advance along the inner
side of the turn, walking on the road. The other soldier should be equipped with
infantry anti-tank weapon (bazooka, panzerfaust).
Attacking with Armored Personnel Carrier
See Fig. 44. Choose two soldiers from the squad, and equip at least one of
them with an anti-tank weapon. Advance forward, widening the gap as you
progress. Meanwhile, the APC’s machine gunner is searching for infantry targets,
covered by one infantryman. The anti-tank soldier can then destroy any tank he
sees. If you can, attack enemy tank crews while they’re “mounting up” — a tank
without a crew is just a heap of expensive scrap metal.
Tips
• Don’t get in the way of your own vehicle. It hurts!
• Don’t forget to use reconnaissance.
• Use options and advice given in these chapters.
• If you decide to go into action alone, plan it precisely and don’t forget
that you are a team.... Only good cooperation of the team will lead you
to achieving your goal.
• Use weapons installed on vehicles.
• Provide cover for your rear at all times.
• None of the methods that are mentioned in common situations are fool
proof. Improvise!
