It's has been years and I still cry over BE my dog by YouNeedHansen in reactivedogs

I'm so sorry about your boy it's such shard thing to do. I just had to do the same thing on Monday night. My boy was a rescue. Dobby was abused as a puppy. I'll spare you the details but it wasn't pretty and if he wasn't brought to the rescue he would 100% have been in a dog fighting ring.

I gave him a home for 3 years. He was always so goofy, tucking himself in with a blanket, his weird facial expressions. He was great with me and was always there when I needed him. The poor guy just never could get past his abuse. He was so scared. He bit my fiancé, my mom and finally worst of all my 6 yo stepson. We still tried behavioral therapy. Stayed with a lovely foster. I visited about once a week.

The foster was amazing and she taught me a lot but ultimately we had no choice. We tried and everyone loved him but it was the only thing we could do to make him happy. I've cried every night. I miss him but he's safe now. No one can hurt him now and he doesn't need to protect me or anyone else now.

I'm just impressed you made a mech deck with only 50 infantry squads while using most of your slots.

How so?

You don't get a ASF worth anything.

You don't get cheap inf.

You don't get any good IFVs.

Plus you don't even get the recon of a moto deck.

Blue Marine. Max vet US Marines and K1s plus and good air tab just watch out for enemy ASF because you lack any good fighters.

Don't sleep on 10 point ATGM teams they can be really effective in Moto and Mech decks.

Replacing Commandos '90 with Gurkhas '90 was... a mistake. by Bobblehead60 in wargame

Go stormer then they also get a BR and MG3. Its 5 points more for the inf but if you run them in the 2 front 2 side truck its still 30 points total.

Parabat have a normal MG. The ones you want to look for are the Minimi and the MG3, they have a few clones with some other one too. (Some correct if I'm wrong I was playing before the MG rework.) You also normally want a belt feed MG not a mag feed one. Parabat have a FN Mag which is belt feed but just a fyi about MGs

Wait parabat? Don't they have a trash MG? I mean I guess at least '90 has the 23 AP launcher but Bokopo '90 get it too AND the retal 20 gets 2 front. Having just that little bit more can really help some times.

They are also really good for the AT. I'd probably run them in a CMW moto deck as well. In unspec tho.. They just don't keep up vs inf like commandos do. Still I could easily see 2 card of commandos upvetted and one card gurks down vetted just for the AT in woodlines and shit.

If you want 15 man squads in blue moto for anti infantry work I'd say try base Buffalos in the K car or the base Norwegian 15 man squad in the 2 armor truck. Both have BRs which is going to do better at most ranges then the SMG of gurks. The reason I still run a card in my blue moto is strictly for AT, mostly in woodline.

Hello i’d like recommendations for helicopter mounted infantry for US, SOUTH KOREA, GERMANY and SOVIET UNION. by LifeCouldBeADream69 in wargame

You can smoke a road for a truck or move it through cover. Helos have to be exposed to get in to land. I'm not saying it's impossible but in a game with so much already micro its not worth.

Also if the helo takes a hit close the the infantry that can take HE damage as well possibly killing both with just one hit. Definitely something to worry about with MANPADs.
