Good day again chaps grin.gif

Just thought I would start a new section on suits/armours.In my particular game I have been using heavy armour on my main assault squad,except for my scout who normally operates in lighter armour.Then a thought entered my head *we should not be getting hit this much,what can we do about it?*.Well,first thing is to get on your bleedin stomach for starters! thus making yourself a smaller target and giving you a more stable firing platform.So,I decided to try my squad in the old lighter armours for a change,and guess what,we didnt even get scratched!.This is going to prove useful against the RF & EF (reticulan & expedition),however,as I have not begun the terraforming process yet (intended) I will still be forced to use the heavier armours on some missions.I have therefore come to the conclusion that mobility and stance FAR outweighs sheer bulk and immobility.The BM were annihilated in my last mission as this shot shows,with Harald lending some awesome rocket support! killcrazed.gif
Oh by the way,my squad was fitted with LR ammo so they were in range of the BM,except Harald who had AP ammo,as he is the pointman usually and needs extra grunt in his weapon.My Ret was placed on the edge of the cliff to the right to provide some rear guard action,just in case those stinking creatures tried to pull a crafty one off laugh.gif

Rockets away!:
