Why not, if I had no other valuable targets, and the infantry was annoying me with a AA gun, I would gladly use the Maverick, assuming I could hit anything since it doesn't go straight, so its not a good AP weapon, the H-AT, on the other hand.

Guys, just remember the Javelin is a $40,000 dollar round and you're shooting it at a guy with a $20 dollar second-hand AK. And from a gamey perspective? The rifleman standing next to you has thirty killing bullets without reloading compared to your one round every 30 seconds or so. As a tank, I love a trigger-happy HAT gunner who likes to give away his position killing grunts. As soon as I hear cries of "Cheap AT sniper", I put the rig in gear because you're out of ammo.

I would agree with concentrations of troops, say 4+, but on single infantry it is just a waste of time for those playing. You detract from game play and reality, thus the mod.

If you get the opportunity, try to get two AT Riflemen (L-AT) in your squad and have them engage enemy APCs both at once. Much more effective than waiting for the one guy to reload from a car, APC or ammo bag. I've been in a squad with two L-AT guys (on Jabal) and it was an absolute APC killer. Every time an MEC APC moved up on us, both the AT guys - I was one of them - popped out from behind cover and fired their rockets within three second of each other. No APC survived a contact with that squad.

I use h at to take out infantry, works like a treat

So fun watching those enemys fly all over

A tip is to have a jeep nearby, or an apc since you can rearm at these
