stalingrad42 - smurf309 - 12-29-2011 started a game of stalingrad42.the sapper and penal units are something i do not know much about.any input would be great..... RE: stalingrad42 - Bushido - 12-29-2011 Smurf, what I use penal units for: drawing reaction fire spotters for art. recon. Yes walk them into the minefields. Some times since I last played S'42 so not sure what capabilities sapper have. If they are engineers they have value as clearing minefields. Hope this helps. Ask more if something is not clear. Tally ho :) RE: stalingrad42 - jonnymacbrown - 12-29-2011 (12-29-2011, 11:57 AM)smurf309 Wrote: started a game of stalingrad42.the sapper and penal units are something i do not know much about.any input would be great..... Just think of your average penal unit as a group of war criminals, ne'er-do-wells, misfits and unlucky losers who are given the most dangerous jobs, like advancing into mine-fields. jonny :smoke: RE: stalingrad42 - smurf309 - 12-29-2011 (12-29-2011, 01:12 PM)jonnymacbrown Wrote:(12-29-2011, 11:57 AM)smurf309 Wrote: started a game of stalingrad42.the sapper and penal units are something i do not know much about.any input would be great..... yea thats the way i have used them so far.....
