Re: Wargame: Airland Dragon
I trust the Marines a lot more than Forecast. I've never seen anything solid to suggest Dragon II+ or III were ever real. IRL Dragon II didn't seem to exist before the late 80s, there's an article in the October 1990 edition of Army magazine talking about plans to upgrade to Dragon II while waiting ...

Re: Wargame: Airland Dragon
Forgot to share this earlier but per B2113 Introduction To Antimechanized Weapons the Dragon II has 2,000 meter range and 24 inch/600mm penetration, so almost double base Dragon's 13 inch/330mm And if M261 is too powerful against armor, would it work as HE? The Army found each individual bomblet alm...

Re: Wargame: Airland Dragon
Hi, OP posted recently enough that I feel mostly safe posting. I would strongly suggest an infantry re-name/re-role. Light Rifleman in reality are just Rifleman without a weapons squad. Rifleman have a weapons squad with M47 and M60 teams. Mechanized Rifleman have M47s at squad level and no weapons...

Re: Rocket Research Help
Necroing because I've got some of the answers 1. Any information on the 6.5 inch RAM/ATAR rocket. Honestly I don't expect much info on this, it was developed in a hurry and dropped quickly. Explosive weight would be really nice. I do have numbers on penetration though. Per OP 1415, the RAM (properly...

Re: I know I'm late...
Realistic squad compositions would be difficult and a balancing nightmare considering some countries run 8 man squads while others run 13 man squads. You will have to create more units in order to show the diffference in loadouts between machine gun teams and heavy weapons squads. Also Im not sure ...

I'm unsure what you're saying.QUAD wrote:Ingame think of mechanized line infantry as meat. Now, I do support penetration buffs to the Dragon series, with range nerfs.

I know I'm late...
but US light infantry do not do what the game says they do. Light Infantry don't have ATGMS at all. According to FM 7-8, Regular, Light, Air Assault, Airborne, and Ranger squad are have the same composition, squad leader and two fireteams with M16, M203, and M249. None of them have squad-level ATGMs...

Re: Rocket Research Help
You might be able to find it in previous posts as well, this reminded me of a post way back about the surprising lethality of SNEB and CRV-7 with penetrator warheads (ie non-HEAT). Still looking for it but there's a ton of info hiding in here and the ALB forum that's worth digging for if you're hav...

Rocket Research Help
Hey, been trying to research rockets recently and though I'd ask you guys, I've noticed pretty much everyone can pull some obscure weapon/vehicle out of their bookmarks when the time is right, so I figure somebody should have what I'm looking for I've been trying on and off the past few month to res...
