A useful trick will be to put a spotter way up the trail to assess the convoy elements before setting up the ambush.
Heavy rain and fog are good opportunities for lightly armed guerrillas to ambush soft enemy convoys in an urban terrain. Try to work on it if that speaks to you.
Guys, with the upcoming release of Firing from Vehicles and Sling Loading, let's post here all our cool mission ideas that take advantage of these cool new features! I'll start:
1. Some dudes on a rubber boat rush in to rescue some other stranded dudes that are attacked on the beach. To make good use of FFV, the defending guys need to be already under attack when the mission start, and the attack needs to be designed so that without EARLY covering fire from the boat guys, the defending guys will not stand a chance.
2. Chase an enemy soft vehicle convoy with AI in position to fire from their vehicles. identify one truck with some stuff that needs to be captured by driving between the trucks and having a closer look (like that scene in Clear and Present Danger where the motorcycle guy gets close tot he SUV to identify which one has the FBI director). Then stop that particular vehicle and grab it.
3. Being chased by Little Birds and Firing from the vehicle at them (some time pressure is a MUST to make it interesting)
Your turn
The fewer men, the greater share of honor
