More Incendiary Weapons

I would like to see more incendiary weapons such as white phosphorus “willie pete” tank, mortar, grenade, and artillery shells. White phosphorus weapons explode with multiple burning chunks that produce a lot of smoke, but not as much smoke as smoke shells.

White phosphorus is sort of weaponised smoke, but the Germans didn’t really make much use of it, the Americans and British used a mix of smoke and white phosphorus depending on the needs of the moment, smoke was much better for screening, white phosphorus had a screening effect but it was also a great way to disrupt the enemy because it would cause physical Harm to soldiers it was something that you would run away from if you were caught in the middle of it

That’s the idea. Current flame weapons do a very good job at routing enemy movement, especially in and around buildings. WP would not be as consistent with hits/coverage as a molotov, but would have an increased range and the burning effective should linger for about 10-20 seconds. I do believe that the Germans did make use of other types of incendiary weapons such as their nebelwerfer rockets.

Oh you want WP on US tanks? Buy it right now a M4A1 sherman 75mm with WP rounds for 60 dollars!!!
