miles teg 1 Posted July 29, 2003 In the first campaign the Russians expected to take Grozny on the march... that is why we made mistake of sending in armored troops first.heres an interesting read... Russias Chechen Wars By the way anyone interesed in making a buratino!?! Yeah definitely! Â A TOS-1 Buratino addon would be AWESOME! Â Â I saw video on the BBC of one of these possibly being used in Grozny. Â The explosion from these rockets looked like a small nuclear bomb exploding. Â It was very impressive and from what I understand it was very effective in clearing city blocks of anything living. Â Bad for civilians but very effective for clearing out rebels.

akm74 1 Posted July 29, 2003 Buratino = pinoccio. It will be very good addon :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miles teg 1 Posted July 29, 2003 Hehehe. I wonder if they called it pinoccio because they have to lie about using it against civilians (because that is against the Geneva Convention). But of coarse the US uses cluster bombs on areas with civilians which is just as bad. Anyways, I was thinking that a VERY good simulation of the TOS-1 rockets exploding would be the CoC nuclear torpedo explosion except on a MUCH smaller scale. If it made a little mushroom cloud type explosion about as tall as the tall apartment buildings in Petrovice (Nogova map) and with a damage radius of about 100 meters, it would be perfect I think. Anyways, definitely a very nasty but extremely effective weapon. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desantnik 0 Posted July 29, 2003 Buratino is not exactly pinochio...because he is supposed to save his master from a dungeon using a golden key - which a helpful turtle finds in the moat... so you see it is not exactly pinochio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
