How does the APC function In the Game?

It is 1965 and the US ground war in Vietnam is in full swing. As a US Army commander, wage a counter-insurgency (COIN) war to secure the Ia Drang valley, on the border with Cambodia.

How does the APC function In the Game?

Hi Again....

Are the Infantry part of the APC unit or are they separate? (I'm assuming they are abstracted and part of the APC meaning more mobility and fire power than regular infantry).

Can you visit a village with any unit or only infantry?

Thanks again.... it's gonna be a long week.

APC are carriers of infantry squads, but can also fight / defend on there own, i use them to get to places quicker, but how you use your's is up to you :roll: :wink:

APC's are multi functional units, they can carry infantry, ammo, supplies and tow artillery. In addition they have have a higher combat value than infantry on their own, they cannot however detect enemy units in adjacent hexes and can't gather Intel.

Can only be refueled at the HQ, ,Firebase or by engineer in the field.
