That's the plan!

I recently played an Invasion match, MEA vs TLF. It was a blast.. literally!

Yeah the BAF and the CAF for me are good against alot of open terrain maps

That unit sounds awesome, and I like that you've accounted for their necessary balancing. There are many factions we'd all love to see implemented into Squad but personally I'm not expecting too much from OWI, at least not in the near future.

Wowza, yall really want those videos. I'll consider it only after I've finished with vanilla Squad stuff.

Oh OK ​@@Tatsu6Actual

Perhaps one day the team experience could be up to your standards.

@@Tatsu6Actual How

The player base would need to become more educated about Squad ideals and remain motivated toward the preferred playstyle. I'm attempting to reach out to some of those players by producing videos such as this one.

Thank you for your service

@@Tatsu6Actual Thank you

I believe is ARMA 3

looks like its squad! its available on steam

@@skdzbop that's what I was thinking, thank you

@@ankhheternalit’s squad not arma

@@ankhheternal He's a fucking idiot It's Squad don't listen to Skdz

@bobthebutler Super glad you've gained something from my work. Please continue to reach out if you have any constructive feedback to provide and I'll keep the momentum going to deliver more of what you enjoy.

That sounds very unlikely

​@@wowie3150They'll probably just going to call it Eastern Private Military Contractor.

True 😂

United States Army Mechanized Infantry: A Review As all mechanized units, the US Mech Inf focuses on armor and protection for the infantry with heavy firepower while giving up speed and logistics capabilities. Now we shall get into how to play this unit. Vehicles: 3 M939 Trucks 3 M113A3 Logi’s 2 M113A3 M2 2 M113A3 Mk19 2 M1064A3 1 M7A3 BFIST 2 M2A3 1 M1A2 (10 min) 1 UH-60 (10 min) No FOB mortars, 1 ATGM So the first apparent thing with the unit is that it greatly lacks in its logistics capabilities as it only has tracked logis available rather than wheeled logis. Thus the helicopter must be utilized to its full potential; it must be only used for supply purposes. The second thing is that the infantry needs to utilize the APC’s and the IFV’s to its full potential as without those things, the infantry of this unit would be very underpowered. Squad Compositions Total-50 men Heli-1 man- UH-60 Tank-3 men- M1A2 Mech Inf- 9 men M113A3 M2, M113A3 Mk19 Mech Inf-9 men M113A3 M2, M113A3 Logi Mech Inf-9 men M113A3 Mk 19, M113A3 Logi Mech Inf-7 men 2 crew M7A3 BFIST M2A3-2 crew 1 men-M2A3 Bradley M2A3-2 crew 1 men-M2A3 Bradley LOGI/FOB-2 men M113A3 Logi+(2 M113A3 Logi)(later in the game when they are used up) Mortars-2 men, 2 M1064A3’s Assault Tactics: The US Mech Inf needs to make use of its armored firepower to effectively assault and overwhelm enemy positions, thus the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle need to be used in Infantry assaults to some degree. So to assault a heavily defended objective, the US Mech Inf first needs to use its mortars effectively to soften up the position and get ready for a full on assault, this would likely last for 1 minute or so. Then approximately 15-30 seconds after the mortar barrage clears up 3 Mechanized Infantry squads need to assault the position and take control of the objective while at least 1 external Bradley needs to support the Infantry. The infantry squads should not be dropped very close to the objective as losing the vehicles would result in very high ticket losses as the infantry would also get hurt. They should be dropped behind a covered area like a building close to the objective. Depending on the situation the M113’s and Bradleys could also deploy smokes to make the infantry assault more effective. After dropping the infantry but before them getting to the objective the Bradleys and the M113’s with the AGL’s and the .50 cal’s need to open fire on enemy positions to inflict suppression and make the enemy infantry weakened. After the infantry enter the objective area, the M113’s could still help the infantry but the Bradleys would rather be used in positions further away from the enemy infantry as losing them would be of very high risk and they would rather be positioned to do reconnaissance and prevent enemy vehicles such as logis and APC’s from reinforcing the enemy positions. After the objective is taken and if a enemy HAB is spotted, it would be of use to divert the Bradleys and M113’s there as suppression is very important in taking down a HAB. Defensive Tactics: Defensive Tactics would honestly vary a lot from situation to situation but building up HAB fortifications should be highly discouraged as the logistics situation of this unit is already in a very bad place and this would only make it worse, and also the HAB fortifications are not very effective for this unit anyways. So using the Bradleys to prevent enemy vehicles from approaching the objective would be the main tactic and the M113’s would serve the purpose of regular ground mounted AGL’s and .50 cal’s. While the infantry could defend other flanks. But thanks to the quality vehicles of this faction their tactical mobility would be very high in defensive situations and could easily divert vehicles to other sides if needed there. But defense should not be sought in this faction as its vehicles are much more oriented towards offense than defense. Matchups against other units: Armored: So the Mechanized vs Armored matchup would not be one that would be favorable towards Mechanized. The reason for this is that Mechanized units lack the enough anti-armor capabilities that would be needed to counter the Armor of the 2 MBT’s of the opposing faction, while also lacking enough speed to effectively outmanuever the Armored unit. Also we have to mention that only 2 Bradleys have TOW launchers as the M7A3 BFIST does not have one. And also not to mention that only two HAT kits are available, likely what would happen is that the MBT’s of the Armored faction would immediately start hunting the Bradley’s and it would culminate in them losing nearly all their mechanized vehicles with killing maybe only 1 tank. This would effectively just leave them neutered and unable to conduct any offensive operations and probably also very ineffective at defense. Combined Arms: This would likely be a equal matchup as it really just depends on how the teams utilize their strengths. So mechanized would have more firepower to conduct assault operations while Combined Arms would have much better logistics and be more adaptable. A strength that I see in Mechanized would be that it could that down the Helicopters of the Combined Arms team more easily as Bradleys generally have that kind of capability in them. But still this would be a more equal matchup as Combined Arms would have better logistics to build better habs in general but with the mobile ammo from the Bradleys and the M113’s Mechanized could still overpower them. Motorized: This would vary from map to map and from Motorized to Motorized unit because for example US Army Motorized has 4 Stryker’s with only 7.62’s and .50’cals and 2 MGS’s which act similarly to sprouts but weaker armor and faster speed. While RGF has 3 BTR-82’s with autocannons on them and 1 BTR-80 with just a machine gun. So I will presume that the rival team would just be RGF. So this could go any way but I slightly favor RGF as they have better logistics because they have logi trucks instead of mechanized logis. Which are much better for logistics purposes as they carry more supply and are twice as fast. If we also look at other factors, while RGF BTR-82’s don’t have the same firepower as the Bradleys do, they are much faster and could outmanuever them in a strategic sense and if damaged they would get to and get back from a repair station much faster. And because of their general speed RGF might just capture the objectives first and get a ticket advantage early on and maybe get HAB’s up in those positions up earlier. And if the BTR’s do any raiding behind the lines of the Mechanized Inf, the Mechanized Inf could not do much as the BTR’s could easily escape before the Bradleys get the chance to catch them. But we should not ignore the sheer firepower of the 4 APC’s and 3 IFV’s of the Mech Inf as it would still be very effective in all out assaults against objectives. So in conclusion this could also go any way but I believe motorized have a slight advantage if they use their strengths correctly. Support: This matchup is a very interesting one, as these units are the complete opposite of each other, one focuses on heavy hitting mobile firepower while the other focuses on static defenses with quality logistics. So this match I think could be pretty favorable for the support side if they utilize their strengths well and if they are knowledgeable with the maps, the reasoning behind this is that they would be the perfect unit to build good static defenses against mechanized units as they have very good logistics with 3 logis and 2 helicopters(which might come in very handy if the Bradley’s are taken down. So if the support units build good ATGM emplacements and the 2 HAB’s they have access to so that they can still spawn infantry into the battlefield even if one HAB is proxied which is very likely to happen in a mass mechanized offensive on a position, they would have a pretty good position in defending and probably could build tons of backline/reserve HAB’s to reinforce their positions if needed, and if the map is a suitable map such as Laskhar valley they could build HAB’s only for putting TOW’s and could easily destroy the mechanized forces. But the US Army Mech Inf has a difference and it is that they have access to mobile mortars which are much more accurate and heavy-hitting than the usual mortars other units have access to and if used correctly this could be the thing that could give them a edge in the battlefield. Thus this match would be sided towards support but if somehow they mess up and Mechanized forces are used correctly Mechanized could still come up on top. Also another thing that I would like to add is that mechanized units should use wolfpacking strategies against support units as they could easily get hunted by 2 TOW launchers if they are alone compared to 3 Bradley’s partnering up and overwhelming the ATGM’s. this is my essay, just wanted to send it to you

@28DemirSamsun Outstanding analysis! I'll be sure to keep a copy of your writing and consider it's main points while developing future Squad content. Much appreciated 🫡

Dawg a PMC is not just 50 dudes who have some firearms and vehicles, they usually have or had connections with governments and can therefore acquire such assets, look at Wagner for example, they’re a pmc yet they have jet pilots.

@@Andreadu34 chill its just a joke and i find them having so many helos goofy

Unexpected tf2

had the loach scout deploy 2 hat kits behind enemy lines very early in the game, never seen armor and logi get mopped up so quickly, and the loach stayed in the area scouting and resupplying the hat's as well

Yep a loach dropping a squad with a engineer can cause all rounds of chaos. Be it shutting off supply lines to outright preventing a superfob.
