![]() ![]() ![]() Generally speaking a recon with air to surface missiles (ASMs) or rocket pods can deal with any unit that doesn't have any anti-air missiles or AAA (anti-air artillery sure as the Flakpanzer). Without going to deep into all of their functions ungunned helo recons are for spotting and ones with guns are for spotting and light damage. Helicopter recons come in many variants and with many load outs. A more experienced player will have a recon waiting to stop this. Helicopters can perform this same kind of recon however it becomes far more dangerous because of anti-air weapons.Īgainst newer players a person may be able to sneak a recon across a lake. Being able to move across rivers behind cover gives them a decisive advantage of deployment as these areas are less likely to be lined with anti-tank weapons. Generally speaking people will cover open areas with anti-tank weapons. They are equipped with a gun so they'll also be able to remove any enemy recon infantry or light recon vehicles. This means they will be able to get behind enemy lines when that line happens to be a river. These recons will come with a lot of various types of armaments for a lot of different situations and a lot of different units.ĭefensive recons come with various weapons for dealing with either infantry or vehicles:Īmphibious recons are able to travel across rivers and lakes. If deployed early enough it is entirely possible to sneak one of these behind enemy lines to wipe out some pricey targets. In pushes it is common to move with one of these recons behind your tanks to provide vision against defenses.īecause they are so armored and many of them have impressively powerful weapons many people will opt to turn the weapons on this unit to slay targets. Without a spotter for approaches you will not be able to attack with the effective range of your anti-tank weapons and tanks. They are useful sitting with your army and behind your lines to stop the enemy from deploying recon and for spotting any sort of approach. These recons are heavily armored vehicles or tanks that have the most powerful of recon weapons capable of taking out enemy vehicles and unfortified infantry. Because of this they tend to want to stay in cover and call in air or artillery support on any target they spot instead of engaging them, themselves.Īnother word for the anti-recon vehicle is a defensive recon. Squads have an extra weapon and slightly more survivability.īut they're all pretty weak in the end. The difference between these is that recon teams are two-man teams while recon squads are five-man squads. It's worth noting that some people like to split this category into two "Recon Squad" and "Recon Team." But their functions are roughly the same. When on mountains they will gain bonuses to optics from the increased altitude. The trade off is that they are exceptionally slow moving once deployed and will die very easily if spotted.Īs another plus they are one of the two unit types that can recon mountains. Recon infantry generally have higher stealth values than average recon units. However it is clear that a unit's combat efficiency goes down if it doesn't have a recon to spot for it. As well when a unit is in cover it gains a bonus to "stealth." This is a stat that is modified by the other half of optics, efficiency. It's worth noting that vision cannot be granted beyond obstructions. The higher the optics stat (of which exceptional is the highest) the further and more efficiently that recon will see. That's not to say the tank will now have full vision range, but it will certainly be a lot higher. However when you add a recon unit into the mix the range of vision for this unit becomes far higher. The tank will not be able to hit the target unless it can see further. It means that a tank will only be able to cover his vision and not his range. So let's say you have a tank sitting in a position and it wants to fire on a target across the way. Higher optics adds two features, higher efficiency and range. ![]()
