Question about S42 McNamara Scenarios

RE: Question about S42 McNamara Scenarios
Actually, it is fairly simple to get through bunkers just unlearn what you know right now. Basically, the best weapon against bunkers has always been armor. With McNamara based db you will find that using your T-34s on bunkers will get them disrupted nicely enough for an infantry assault to push them out. Will you suffer casualties with the infantry assault? Yes, but this is desired, the main goal is to just force them out of the bunkers where they can be dealt with with artillery and everything else available.

Again, a viable strategy is to hit a bunker with the tanks to disrupt, then do a combined SMG and tank assault. Or, hit with the tanks, push them out with the regular and expendable grunts then, when they are vacated, follow up with a crushing assault with an SMG battalion the enemy is fleeing in the open.

I have found that the enemy will often voluntarily vacate a bunker if you subject it to enough hard attack power from tanks. But then again it all comes down to how much time you can spend on the task. If you do not have the time to spare then you will have to make a trade off in casualties after you disrupt them. If you have the time to spare then pound them into submission with armor, and the heaviest artillery available.
