KyleBrogan 0 Posted November 12, 2003 I've only seen/used the POW Truck once, and that was in a map I downloaded which is actually a challenge against the fabled General Ironside, which gets a whole lot of stuff and it really just a cheap SOB. As a bit of "compensation" you are Regular USA with an added POW Truck, and the Engineering Humvee. The Humvee, or EH, can repair your units on the field, making it a pretty nice little bit of equipment, kind of like a more versatile Repair Drone. As for the POW Truck, I couldn't get the dang thing to work. In theory, it's supposed to convert enemy units and "persuade" them to give away locations of the enemy's buildings and units. But I never got it to work, so I didn't even worry about it. I just beat him by continually dropping tanks, rockets and snipers (via chinook) in the middle of his base before he got his base defenses up. I destroyed everything on the map that was his, and it still didn't give me a win, so oh well. Anyway, I think that the POW is a complete waste of time, but I think the EH, if it acted in the same way as the Medic does on infantry, would be a welcome addition to the US armament. It would help US tanks to stand up to the Tank and Nuke Generals head to head. - Sparticus Share this post Link to post

J-Fire_Man 0 Posted May 9, 2004 Yeah, the POW truck should be for prisoner, but for what kind of prisoner. Is there any prisoner in Generals? Share this post Link to post
