OBA

Post by slaphappypappy »

Can someone explain to me how enemy OBA can find my units when the spotting unit is not visible to me?
I restarted The Pissel Bridgehead twice now because it wiped out my units that were not in sight of any leader with a radio.
This is depressing.
No, it's a joke. What looks like a good scenario is junk because of it.

AI doesn't use Radio support weapon to call for OBA, only human player needs a leader with Radio.

So the AI finds you wherever you go, you can't hide.
Even if no other enemy units see you?

AI can call for OBA only when it has a line of sight to your units, assuming you play with Fog of War enabled.

So I'm wasting my time making a leader with a radio a priority target?

Yes you do. You need to move carefully using as much shelter as possible

Even with the Fog of War enabled the AI was still able to call in OBA. Not very realistic. AI must have satelites.
