I would think Foxholes is one given the disdain for them.
Lol there is always one in the bunch!I'm sorry but "Charlie" has been a PITA for me for many years; regardless of its attitude.
Block the road ?I usually don't know what to do with a road block.
An obstacle rarely stops the enemy progression indefinitely.I usually don't know what to do with a road block.
There's an old army saying. "An obstacle isn't an OBSTACLE unless it's covered by fire. Otherwise, it's just something that's there to PO everyone." (The old German "60-minute roadblock" they would throw up in Germany once the Allies had crossed the Rhine.)An obstacle rarely stops the enemy progression indefinitely.
I see some uses in addition to blocking a given road:
- It can block LOS and allow to move across a road without losing concealment.
- If out of LOS at the beginning of the scenario, it can lead an AFV to change its progression route and possibly expose itself to a flank shot
- It is a nice HD position
