Yes, PlasmaKrab. Thank you. I know that. I'm talking about orienting the gun to cover your sector of fire while moving. Potential targets, not actual ones. For example: a Tank company traveling in a Company Column (Platoons in column)
the Lead tank would have it's gun pointed to the front, the next tank to the right, the third to the left alternating until the last tank wich faces to the rear to avoid any suprises. Other formations would use different orientations.
Can you be more spesific of what actual advantage did you get whit the old system compared to this new one. I mean did you see enemy units better or hit them more often in opfire?

I personaly like the new turret system. Previously tanks were driving along whit their turrets pointing everywhere. I also see no harm in the new feature because the tanks still turn their turrets when atacking. Also now you are less likely to get your tank destroyed by an enemy tank hitting the side of your turret in a head to head engagement.
