Personally it's a mistake to give those things a 30mm gun for the reason you stated, if you give them a gun, theyll use the vehicle in a manner for which it was not intended,<br /><br />Looking forward to more posts!Disgruntled Fusilierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995610821904415726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-256415892668078367.post-38637777016720591402017-05-21T18:30:35.435-07:002017-05-21T18:30:35.435-07:00Thanks for your comments!

Interesting insight, It is a really nice vehicle packed full of great commo gear and sensors, but it is NOT for the decisive action direct fire engagement environment. <br /><br />One of the Armor magazine articles I read had the unit using Javelins out of the top hatch while mounted to provide overwatch. I know that there is a program to add 30mm guns to the vehicles and you can add Javelin remote weapon systems, but I wonder if the benefit is worth it. It will encourage the vehicle to be used as an inadequate "tank" rather than per doctrine as great transport for what is fundamentally an infantry formation. <br /><br />I did get some feedback from the author, Ivan, about the rules over at The Wargames Website. I was forgetting about the hiding rule, I am going to try rerunning the scenario but use that rule, plus the company mortars to drop WP smoke on the OPFOR overwatch positions to force them to move if they want to continue to cover the moving elements. Stay tuned.Jozi's Tin Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00999059832865044397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-256415892668078367.post-26912231760311853022017-05-21T17:44:29.427-07:002017-05-21T17:44:29.427-07:00Smart thinking treating your ICVs as trucks.

To hear some of the staff at the CMTCs these days, some units go in using their Strykers as tanks and bradleys with predictable results. <br />I like your mods for 5Core CC as well.
