Assault Breachers is a United States Infantry unit.
Strategy[ | ]
In contrast to the British CMDO Assault or the German Stoßtrupp/SS-Stoßtrupp, the Assault Breachers carry 300m weapons! The chief attraction of this unit is the combination of 2 smoke grenades, 3 explosives and 9 HP. But at 30 points they cost as much as two Stoßtrupp, so they should not be squandered.
Overview[ | ]
The Germans placed in tidal flat of the beaches with obstacles to catch landing craft coming ashore at high tide. To counter the the obstacles V Corps created Special Engineer Task Force which made up of 146th Engineer Combat Battalion, the 299th Engineer Combat Battalion (less one company), and twenty-one NCDUs (naval combat demolition units) along with 150 1st Infantry Division troops trained in demolition. These units' mission was to breach the German obstacles.
