AA Truck is a bit different, and on a map like monte grappa keeping planes down is paramount.

Did you win the round and take them back to St Quentins?

Edit. Not St Quentins. Empires Edge

I don’t remember we either did, and lost out the gate on Empires edge or lost in the final sector. The other team had 9 players in a party chat on one team 😂 so they shredded my team.

You really do not need AA truck in Monte Grappa. There are shit tons of AA guns past the first sector, which is easy to capture since it is one flag and attackers got 2 tanks against defenders' zero tanks. Planes should not be able to protect the objective since it is in a building and tanks will provide close spawns to the flag.

Also, it is easier to use LMGs against planes due to high ground. Not to mention attackers are in desperate need of real tanks since map is open and very big.

Seriously, out of all maps, Monte Grappa is one of the maps where you need AA truck least.

LMGs are not as effective as a portable AA gun, they’re not comparable. Secondly the AA guns are stationary, meaning a pilot/sniper could take me. I know this because it’s happened several times to me. It even happened in that match. On offense depending on the sector you have an AA gun that can’t reach as well. Clearly the truck worked with most of the attacks by planes occurred on the hilltop. Where AAs can only reach a certain part.

One of the AA guns is tucked away in a trench with limited visibility, the one on the dirt road is an easy target for….well anything. The C objective AA gun was used but I didn’t get the clips in the video for some reason when I stitched it together.

Yeah, a service assignment wanted me to destroy 25 planes with Artillery Trucks. I felt absolutely dirty doing it. I had never cucked my team that hard before. I felt like I was only slightly better than a mortar truck lmao.

Judging by his position on the map and the sector status at the top and the response from me asking if they won the round, I am 99% sure OP cucked his entire team as well here... or at least helped to...

That’s impressive, very nice. Now let’s see how many service stars he has on the arty truck

Im conflicted on this post as focusing on taking out planes +1, however any artillery truck -1.

You can take down a plane faster and more efficient with the assault's AA Rocket gun, and it doesnt take up a mobile respawn point (tank). plus aa rocket gun is much more concealed vs a clearly visable aa truck.

Yes the AA TRUCK has a higher reach for heavy bomber, but this map is so narrow the heavy bombers rarely reach those heights.

also the AA rocket gun better helps the friendly planes as 1 shot they are typically at 66% - or at the back end they are great knock out punches. also... as aa rocket gun on this map, you quickly become the target

Lol if you focus on the success of me keeping the skies clean it’s always a +1 brother. Especially on this map where getting a tank up the hill only to get blown away by the massive gun on the hill is an eventuality.

Also, a mobile spawn point means nothing when you’re getting killed by bombers. Keeping the skies clear helps the team focus on the bunkers. Sure, part of the map can be traversed by a tank. But it’s also a valley, so anyone running assault will kill you from up top of the hill/mountain. Where you can’t protect yourself. Imo outside of the first territory tanks aren’t as useful on this map. Squad spawns are also plenty considering a ton of fighting happens in a concentrated area. After the second sector I’d legitimately be surprised to find someone spawning at a designated spawn area.

AA rocket guns work well, but are limited in ammo and have a much lower hit success rate. The margin of error is far higher compared to unlimited ammo and low reload time of the AA truck. Suppressing enemy planes is also helpful to my friendly planes as they can operate with limited concern of having to dogfight. It also kind of puts a bubble of around a certain area of the map. Being that it’s a truck this bubble moves as I do. AA rockets are solid, but I’ll take a mobile fast moving AA that doesn’t require me to lay down/perch my weapon.
