ATGMs range and filter values

I played the scenario to conclusion and found the range/filter settings for the Javelin teams appropriate for opportunity fires. Grant1pa has two settings for the Javelin teams, one at the forward positions and a second setting at the rear positions. Ingenious. Here are the settings: first rear then forward position

Steel Armour Front Max 18 18
Steel Armour Front Min 001 001
Armour Engagement Range 025 012
Infantry Engagement Range 006 006
Soft Vehicle Engagement Range 010 010
ATG/ATGM Engagement Range 030 015

I would have ranged infantry engagement at 3 not 6 hex.

I try to engage targets at ranges where the likihood of a kill is worth giving away position. At farther ranges against a modern armies, Russia certainly qualifies, the vehicle defenses often defeat the shot. But, we'd have to hear more from the design guys to know with certainty.

I found the range/filter settings for the Javelin teams to be spot on. They did their jobs as expected when I played the scenario.
