desert tactics

[Soldier]

From my experience in the desert, there's only one problem that you don't encounter elsewhere.
DUST...
No matter where and how slow you move a vehicle, it raises clouds of dust. The more the vehicles the larger the dust cloud.
So tricks like pretending to attack in one place and really attack elsewhere, don't work.
Your foe will know by the sizes of your generated dust clouds, where your main body is located and moving from and to... :-)

Oh.. and your troops will tire much quicker, because of the hi temperatures and walking on sand..
