| — In-game description |
A Field Bridge is a player built Structure that helps infantry and land Vehicles cross terrain obstacles (rivers, valleys, cliffs, destroyed bridges, etc...). Structures cannot be built on it. It takes damage when crossed by most vehicles.
Construction
A Field Bridge is built with 5 Metal Beam. Equip a Metal Beam and press B to open the construction menu and select the Field Bridge option. Rotate the blueprint with RMB + mouse drag, press LMB to place the first end of the bridge and press again to place the other end. Press LMB on the blueprint to submit the metal beam you carry, then bring 4 more and submit them to finish the construction.
Up to 3 Field Bridges can be linked together. To join two simply move your blueprint over another Field Bridge to auto-snap it. You can disable the auto-snap functionality by holding Shift when placing your blueprint.
The length of one Field Bridge is between 4 and 25 meters.
A Field Bridge can be built over land or water. It can also be built over a destroyed large bridge.
It can be repaired with a Hammer and some Basic Material.
Vehicle Crossing Damage
Field Bridges take damage when most vehicles try to cross them. Damage dealt by vehicles crossing is applied every 2-3 seconds and vary depending on the vehicle type.
Motorcycles, Bicycles, and Field Guns can cross them without damaging it.
Trucks, Armored Cars, Tankettes, Flatbed Trucks, Light Utility Vehicles will do a little bit of damage to the field bridges when crossing.
Harvesters will do a bit more.
Cranes, Construction Vehicles, Landing APCs, Half-Tracks, Scout Tanks, and every other Tanks do massive amounts of damage to the bridges, making those vehicles unable to cross field bridges safely or at all.
Any ship or amphibious vehicle in water can instantly destroy a Field Bridge by touching it.
Uses
Field Bridges can be used to cross rivers and valleys to flank the enemy or create a new resupply route for land vehicles. They can also be used to create small shortcuts for infantry (even far from the frontline) like climbing a small cliff instead of having to go around it.
