Maybe he isn't obsessed like some on their ever futile attempt to only use the best units and he just plays the game and use the units he likes in their best way.

As opposed to the highly effective attempts at using terrible, useless units? Yep, in my experience there's lots of those players - they should stick to single player or 1v1 if they want to use lol units.

If it involved blowpipes, then yeah - pretty much.

I haven't read one single "strat guide" or watched even one replay.

I simply play the game. I may have some hardware knowledge of the cold war era but since every unit in this game has had it's stats tweaked for balance from the real deal anyway it's not like that is an advantage either.

In simply playing the game as I see fit I lose many times......but I find I also win many times......<shrugs>.......either way I'm having fun.

Sorry to hear you're not having any fun Space unless things are being done exactly as you see fit! :roll:

Do the math and You'll see that blowpipes are decent when used with vet 4.

Vet4 blowpipe + Saracen = 20points, 42% accuracy, 2100 range, 3 damage, wheeled vehicle, good guns
Stingers + m113 = 25points, 39% accuracy, 2400 range, 4 damage, tracked vehicle, poor guns

With full vet, blowpipes will be able to defeat cheap PACT infantry on their own and have a similar cost effectiveness than unvetted stingers. Saracen is better than M113 (actually everything is better than M113)

Maybe MadMatt isn't that stupid after all... :mrgreen:

Except when their are used to hide in forests and ambush helo passing by which is th only use of infantry AA in my opinion. That's why the vehicle is important firstly because you pay for it and secondly because a M113 will never allow you do do this move.
