Not quite as cut & dried as that in this game, yes if thats what happens - it comes across it but a more typical situation.
Somebody has it in sight say an infantry squad who miraculously manage to wave there arms & distract it making it turn its rear to the tank just before it appears.
Therefore as you have to much info/control only a chance, another one of those situations where you know/learn what to expect but dont bank on it.
Its what I love about this game you have worked towards creating an opening only to find inexplicably everyone misses & it all stalls or you get the most unlikely of kills elsewhere can you capitalise on it. No other game seems to capture the uncertainty & situations this throws you into, worryingly perhaps I have even been known to chastise my units verbaly or utter the odd common my son.
