Ahh but you see, the Major touted TACOPs as "a realistic simulation of
modern
combat". Taht's where I fall ruight off theboat. In that game units
preess on the
assault until annihlated. If a whole MRB has it's BMPs shot out from
under it in
a kill zone, the remanants will press on to the enemy lines on foot
regardless of
loss. Yeah, whatever.
