AT Support question
I have a 15 strength AT parked adjacent to an infantry unit in a city hex. The infantry unit is attacked over and over by a tank and the AT does not support it. Why????? The enemy armor has no hero assigned to it. My AT is not suppressed completely or at all in some cases. I just don't get it.

I had the AT Hero on my 8.8 Flak and hoped it would support even when in AA mode. Sadly it did not

Re: AT Support question
Was the AT supporting at first, but then it stopped? It may have run out of ammunition. Support fire requires and consumes ammunition.pboudreau01 wrote: ↑Sun Apr 18, 2021 4:02 pm I have a 15 strength AT parked adjacent to an infantry unit in a city hex.

Maybe you needed to switch the 88 from AA mode to AT mode?
And what type of tank was it?

Re: AT Support question
This is true of the soft attack award, as well. Only infantry kills count for progress toward the awards, no matter how many non-infantry soft targets you killBaronVonKrieg wrote: ↑Tue Apr 20, 2021 8:40 am
