RE: [GZG] [SG] IAVRs





Specific to your scenario though, I would put one line squad on each side of the road and a heavy weapon team as a "stopper" to take out the lead tank. Mixing assets too heavily in the same squad degrades performance of your entire force.

<with tongue in cheek> This reminded me of the scene in Ronin when Sean Bean's character outlines his plan for an ambush, and gets cut to shreds by Robert DeNero's character...


Personally, I'd *not* put ambushing squads on both sides of the road.

I'd put them all on the same side of the road, and one at the end to act as a stopper. If they're on opposite sides of the road and the ambush goes bad and they have to withdraw, their force is split. Plus, it would be much harder to manoeuvre in support of each other if one squad has to cross the open road to come to the aid of the other.

Having said that, deployment is very dependent on the terrain. It might well not be a problem, and in a game, of course, you don't worry about friendly fire since that doesn't happen without a lot of GM intervention...
