Entire US Army VS 5 GIANT TRIPODS!? - Call to Arms: War of the Worlds Mod Battle Simulator

5 Giant Tripods from the War of the Worlds are invading Earth and the Entire US Army complete with 100 M1 Abrams and 1000 US Soldiers are defending from the Giant Tripod invasion. This was made using the Men of War Assault Squad 2 Spin off Call to Arms War of the Worlds mod battle simulator.

so as the developer of this mod, something I've seen in the video you were curious about. 1. there are no weak spots for the shield not like a normal vehicle where there is an engine that could be hit. just gotta break the shield/ 2. the infantry aren't completely useless, 1 is good for distracting from heavily armored tanks also and any bullet does damage to the shield. the shield is just another layer of health. Tripods also have different stances, like infantry. the tripod u were using in the video was the low health one meant for people who want an easier better. i challenge you to fight the hard ones, spread out your men use the building as they help the infantry a butt load more and using static weapons etc ive taken out this tripod using mostly infantry and static weapons with on 5 tanks. so its definitely possible to do it with fewer. also, the weakness of the tripods are flanks as they take a while to rate and the tripods on have a 180-degree view. means there a whole another 180 they cant see or engage. thank you for playing my mod brother.

I'd like to see how those tripods stand up against the Republic or empire that would be kinda cool

[joeyarambula]

I actually love this mod is super fun. It's an even fun to have them pit against each other lol

[chancevoegeli]

I would really like to see a video of this with the US Army and the Russian Army and the German army all working together in the next video Against 18 Giant Tripodsi.
And have Air support and have the Dutch Army.

Lol, I didn't expect the tripods to be that terrifying

It may help if you add AT infantry, guys with recoilless rifles, rocket launchers, Javelins, even Barretts. Setting up rifle squads and machine gun teams is a waste of FPS, they do nothing at all.

Theoretically speaking, these things would be impossible to take down with kinetic weapons since they had a force shield working on some form of gravitational manipulation.
And non of them took any damage from anything thrown at them in the movie. What ever they had there got scrambled by some form of Covid!

[angelmcfarland]

The movie made the Tripods very OP with their shields being able to resist everything the US army threw at them.
It was till later learn that a soldier taking with them explosives for a close range suicide kill was the most effective at taking one down even though it had a cost.

But anyway, The game here shows how the tech looks when the Tripods get nerf down their shields which kinda makes me wonder how the movie would had turn out had the tripods had weaker shields :3

There she lies in the silence, preparing for the final grand slam, an ironclad low in the water, this is the torpedo-ram Thunder Child.

""You see, killbots have a preset kill limit. Knowing their weakness, I sent wave after wave of my own men at them until they reached their Limits and shut down"

[adamhickey]

"Bows and arrows against the lightning!"
"Mmm..."
"They haven't seen the heat-ray yet..."

Pretty fun video. It'd be interesting to see the difference if you had artillery and close air support no to mention Javelin troops. Whilst the tripods were effective the Abrams like all tanks especially MBTs are best suited to open areas where they can use their mobility to their advantage. Rather than sit there and make it easy to get hit hah.

[ryanpiercy]

I knew the M1 Abrams was a great tank, i didn't know it could take down tripods when attacking in huge swarms. That said, I can't help but wonder if we would have learned enough about their shielding that we could breach it better.

You should have like 7 countries all trying to fight like 10 of these things.

I love War Of The Worlds, and I'm happy seeing it in your videos

[generalbearidk]

Hello daily tactics hope you’re having a good day

[pemser]

Me: Those soldiers need better dispersion.
TriPod: *Zaps 5 soldiers with one blast.

Humans will always find a way to win. No matter what.

Awesome! Love getting more War of the Worlds videos. Would be really awesome to see them against ww2 (or even book appropriate (pre-ww1)) units! If it works with a ww1 mod, it could be neat to do a series of battles inspired by the events of the book.
