I was watching a WWII documentary about the Eastern Front, and saw a segment about Russian units who trained dogs to look for food under armored vehicles. Of course, they kept them hungry, then strapped bombs to them and let them loose when a German tank came calling.
Well, question is: Does anyone know of any scenarios that have some kind of special mechanic/rule for this? If not, might be a fun one to build a scenario around…
Stephan;
One of the early ASL Annuals had a joke rules section for Mine Dogs…no scenario, just the joke rules. The did they same for Pipers, Tiger Traps, and Soviet Flying Tanks.
Semper FI!
ScottBut you nned to remember why the Russians stopped using the Dogs. They were trained by using Russian tanks and when used in the actual battlefield they went back to the familiar sounding Russian tanks.
A dogs best sense is smell.
They trained them using Russian tanks which were Diesel. The German tanks were Petrol (Gas)
Guess which tanks they went to……..
