Wargame: Red Dragon Campaign - Bear vs Dragon (1979) #4

[@ProvidenceXIV]

One of my favorite campaigns. It's such a nice change of pace from the unicorn-micro meta in multiplayer where you have to get the most usage out of your 150+ point units. Lots of fun seeing swarms of shitty Cat-C/Cat-B units unloading on one another. Really liked that showdown with the T-34s vs the T-72s, satisfying seeing all those +45s popping up after the cluster bombers came in.

[@muhrichard8634]

you planning to put units down and then forgetting to and switching to another unit before you do is always a treat

[@Nangleator22]

Love those dramatic spam defenses. The next battle looks like fun. If you carry those cluster bombers over, and they don't get intercepted, they might get massive kills racked up. That map doesn't seem to really offer any reverse slope defense, which I prefer when lacking ATGMs in a tank spam. Just those little towns and forests. Just try to load them up with RPGs. Oh, and supplies where you can! I'd rather have one good gun with a supply truck nearby than two guns.

[@BrorealeK]

Nice reverse slope defense with your T-34s. Very fun to watch that spam in action.

[@Schmidty1]

Always lookin forward to 8am EST bc that means wargame RD campaigns!

[@avengermkii7872]

"T-80s...Shit" Me when I see super strong units

[@Schmidty1]

That pinpoint retreat tho oh AI u silly.

[@StacheMan26]

I'd recommend getting the N.Korean air assault unit on your next turn, use it to run down the survivors from Bolshoi Kamen.

[@MrPanzerTanzer]

If you attack with an ground unit you can deploy in the sector you are attacking from. If yo attack with an air assault unit you can deploy in an sector in the mid of the battlefield. If you dont get a total victory and a retreat the battle goes on next day with deployment in every sektor you hold at the end of the last battle. Air assault can additonaly cross borders without an arrow to attack.

[@lightfootjpauls]

If they have helos they get forward deployment

[@Schmidty1]

JPaul Lightfoot ^^ same for the player as well

[@SigurdKristvik]

Awesome spectacles :)

[@sylvainprigent6234]

I tried those campaigns out a couple of times, but... sometimes the spam surprises me and I lose more units than I should XD you definitly do well if it's the first time you try out. However, be carefull you don't want to send the APCs to probe and suicide, cuz if they get killed, you won't have the infantry unit they were carrying for the following battles,.

[@Schmidty1]

Sylvain Prigent you keep the inf if the transport dies. This isn't ALB

[@zakalwe2240]

Long Wang Attack Force......ahem

[@markdiohare7429]

Long wang means the king of dragon in chinese lol

[@nogodsnomasters7669]

Vulcan-Still loving it

[@adammullarkey4996]

5:30 I misread that as "Art. Recon Coy." Using artillery for recon? Sure, why not?

[@wojtekimbier]

It's weird that they write for example 9K37 next to BUK, but not 9K38 designation next to Igla. Quite inconsistent in their aproach.

[@VulcanHDGaming]

I'm sure back in the day if you'd made a post on the forum they would have changed it.

[@Trackers89]

Their treatment of Japanese units is by far the weirdest, spelling their names out phonetically in Japanese instead of just writing "Type 61" or "Type 74".

[@TaTachiMatachi]

And these forces are... T-80s. Shit. Goddammit I'll remember that

[@Schmidty1]

27:30 u also have tanke shashou

[@cavemantrog194]

Long wang, nice.

[@markjrgensen7818]
