Russians / Militia get them.

Tandem 1 hits a tank. So that would just be overpowered for the insurgents. Might as well give them the SMAW ._.


Also, ATM, the Russian faction gets tandems.

ah that explains alot but i still dont get why thay have any busness on a cache if we can never and will never get them so its as the title says there taunting tandem warheads (factionist devs) .

This weapon has been showing up in use by Iraqi insurgents and is claimed by some sources to have once achieved a mobility kill against an M1 Abrams hitting the left side hull next to the forward section of the engine compartment, protected by Chobham armour. It penetrated a fuel tank, flooding the compartment with fuel. Whether a standard RPG-7 warhead would have had the same effect or would have been rendered ineffective by the side skirt is unclear.

source PG-7VR - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

but anyway u can play that game of detailism further and ask the caches to look different each or items disappear after an insurgent reloaded something from it.
so, as said of course the 7VR in the inventar would be nice but would completely change gameplay.

A spawn kit at main perhaps? Spawns once and only has one missile at a time, would encourage the kit to be kept for a rainy day.

Having them spawn at caches would be a bit hard, armor already gets dominated due to people going into the cities with the tanks and APCs (ala Basrah).

either way the tandem warhead imo shouldnt be avaible to INS due to gameplay reasons (afaik there is a single tank in ins maps) APCs are easily dealt with regular RPGs and that is pretty much the only armored vehicles, along with IFVs, that an Insurgent will encounter,

So why does Bluefor need deployable TOW.

Well then, I don't think MEC should get the ERYX because it one hits a tank.

Whats the difference that they are insurgents?

Because they are an unconventional group incapable of buying legal weaponry. They are responsible for the deaths, nay, the murder of hundreds of their own countrymen and coalition forces. Their weaponry and equipment are all through shady dealings with arms dealers, and as Afghanistan has demonstrated, neighboring countries.

The MEC have the Eryx as it is a legal (hypothetical, as with the MEC itself) purchase of hundreds of weapons from a liscenced missile manufacturer, MBDA (Matra BAE Dynamics Alenia).

enhancing the word murder like this in this context makes ur post rather a one sided judgement about insurgents. i like to see statements like this rather in political discussion threads.
apart from that the facts about the weapon sources for the insurgents are obviously true.

That is true, but is murder not the deliberate killing of another human for a purpose relevant to the one who kills?

There is realism then there is practicality, if the Insurgents got access to Tandem warheads then Armor would just be completely useless on Insurgent maps due to the HUGE risk factor.

If it was, like I said earlier, one kit that spawns at the main without a respawn and only ONE warhead before reload from caches/ammo techy then sure, its feesable.

edit: Also, the killing of civilians to prove a point is murder. Find reasons to justify that without religion being involved tbh.

Hey I like my bases to be fully constructed

Though maybe to waste Gary?

On a side note: politics...out...of...this...thread. Period

one mans massacre is another mans victory.




As said keep politics out please and keep to the topic of those cheeky warheads.
