veji1 -> 1st Ind. Brigade (5/19/2006 11:50:07 AM)
It seems that the 1st Ind Brigade is the only motorized unit in the IJA. I have checked the reinforcement queue, but haven't seen any other unit like this... How fast does it move ? Is it a good idea to couple it with TAnk regiments and Cavalry units for flanking moves ? Thanks for the intel.

Sneer -> RE: 1st Ind. Brigade (5/19/2006 3:16:48 PM)
with current road network + movement model and 60 miles hexes there is nothing like flanking movement :-)

veji1 -> RE: 1st Ind. Brigade (5/19/2006 4:49:32 PM)
I didn't mean tactical flanking moves, I meant for example the runs to Lanchow and the such a Jap player can try to do in China... If this Inf Brigade is fast, it would be worth buying it for operations in India with Tank regs, it would form sort of an Armoured div... So does anyone knows how fast it moves ? Do people use it for any specific mission or just as a regular unit ? Thanks for the replies..

From my understanding, a unit must be designated as armor (ARM) in order to get the faster movement rate.

bugger ! So in terms of movement the fact that it is a motorized brigade doesn't mean squat ? Does that mean that the Cavalry units are as slow as a regular infantry unit as well ?

Nikademus -> RE: 1st Ind. Brigade (5/19/2006 5:12:31 PM)
yes.

nooooooo Thanks for the qnswer though... nooooooo

is it possible to change the nature of the Unitin the editor, so as to maker this brigade and cavalry units ARM unit for them to get the move bonus ? Would they gain other attributes as well ? It it just changes their capacity to move fast or slow, it might be a chang to consider..

Nikademus -> RE: 1st Ind. Brigade (5/19/2006 5:37:37 PM)
Not sure as i've never tried it.

I would definitely assume so; there's a field in the editor called Unit Type. Most are infantry, but there are armoured units as well...

Terminus -> RE: 1st Ind. Brigade (5/19/2006 7:30:25 PM)
Of course, that'll also assign the armoured unit icon to them...

tsimmonds -> RE: 1st Ind. Brigade (5/19/2006 11:29:19 PM)
IJA does get two or three armoured divisions as reinforcements.
