Default Re: Super snipers???

Artur I think the way snipers in the game should operate is that they should have fewer shots(say only 1 or 2) but they should have very good accuracy and supressive value with them. Considering the scale of the game a sniper would take a shot and then relocate so as to stay concealed. With the game being about 5 minutes a turn 2 shots would be a lot for a sniper.
As far as MG's go I think they are deadly enough...I have noticed that with this latest version they have good range and supressive value but the biggest thing is that they are hard to spot. In many of the scenarios when my troops come under long range fire I am not able to spot the firing position of the MG. The same goes for AT missles. You get hit and only get the direction the shot came from. As far as snipers go I have had them in scenarios where I have taken 3 or more shots at a unit before being able to do anything with them.
