In the beginning, I really missed the opfire confirmation. Especially against human opponents, it seemed exploitable to move units around in order to draw opfire chances before beginning the 'real' movement.
If you have the CD version, the opfire filter then works like a charm. You can specify which target to engange, in what area, against how strong armour, at what range, ...
I didn't miss opfire confirmations after that, and neither will you.

I dont go mad with the feature, but it was handy as Iran to set my chieftains and TOW to engage Iraqi T-72 and discount any T-55 etc, which my lesser stuff was left to shoot at. Or in WW2, to set up my 17 pounders to hit on tiggers, panthers etc and leave P4s to the cromwells and regular shermans.
The ambush area is useful now and then to only fire on targets in a small area of critical import, and leave any others to deal with later.
