Infantry against armour

[PoorOldSpike]

RIFLE-GRENADE IN ACTION
(from a game against DevilThomas)
1 - I put this German halfsquad here simply as a forward observation post to report on enemy movements, note the minimum-arc (15m) to stop them firing and giving away their position.
However, a T-70 comes trundling down the road and to my surprise they fire a rifle-grenade at it (the arrowed small grey airborne dot)
2 - The first one misses but this second one hits.
3 - Scratch one T-70!








Looks like yer gonna have ter get yerself another tank bub..






Tactical notes -Interestingly the guys fired outside their infantry-arc at an armoured target, maybe they thought it was too good a chance to miss.
Also note they were out of command, I think all o-o-c units sometimes tend to ignore arcs.
Note the range was 39m, that's about par for the course with rifle-grenades, I've never seen one fired at more than about 40m

Good site here about several different types of rif-grens-
