Title: Shock Guards
Post by: Sonders on June 01, 2010, 02:37:07 PM

I had Shock Guards selected, out of force of habit I clicked on a dropped zook and to my surprise they walked over and picked it up. They where some real bad asses with that zook. I didn't think Soviets could pick up dropped weapons.

Soviets can pick up small arms like BARs and Bazookas, but they can't recrew heavy weapons such as HMGs, Mortars and Emplacements.

From the FAQ:

Quote

Q. Why can't the Soviets recrew heavy weapons?
A. Due to a glitch that causes the game to crash when custom factions recrew weapons - the Soviets have been designed around it, Soviet crews will have more men defending their heavy weapons.

Q. OK, then why can I still grab bazookas and LMGs?
A. Soviets can capture light weapons like Panzerschrecks, Bazookas, LMGs, etc.
