when to fire back

Smersh,
use your weapon to your advantage. It is a question of having more accurate fire from closer range, or having bit less accurate fire but from safe position. If we are talking mg's here I'd rather check enemy max range and put my mg's 2 or 3 hexes beyond. <snip>

Same for IGs - just outside of rifle range - or mg range depending on what you're going after. The big advantage to armour is you can get a lot closer safely.
