Discuss all things military here. I will kick it off with this fucking awesome battle scene between Chinese communists and Japanese troops.

The Roman Legions were the best force ever...no arguments allowed.

Personally, formations strike me as a bad idea in general though.
Work in progress.

GAH! I can name several rules of ambushes broken by both sides! :blink: :wacko:

WHY oh WHY did the Chinese put on their bayonets. The sun could've reflected off them and given away their position!

The Japanese were stupid. For near ambushes, NEVER stay put! Run OUT of the kill and beaten zones!

And lastly, NEVER EVER hit a force larger than yourself with a near ambush! The only reason the commies won was because of the aforementioned stupid Japanese!

The reason the Chinese won was because the Japanese were traveling through a canyon. :lol: And the Chinese lost almost as many troops as the Japanese.

Still, the rule for near ambushes is to immediately RUN OUT of the kill zone, through the enemy's lines.

Meh, dunno if that woulda worked in this case, but oh well. The Japs stayed in the killzone and were slaughtered by mortars.

Yes, that is one thing the Chicoms were renowned for. :lol: Aside for the whole...massive numbers.

That is a horrible, horrible fact. I once continuously sent teams of engineers out to capture buildings in the middle of the map, but they never made it. So then I sent out a sniper team of 2, and only 1 sniper made it. I then followed another sniper team, and found out EVIL MONKIES were murdering my minions! :blink: :wacko:

The real question is, why aren't they killing people?
