Default Re: Playtesting WinSPMBT patch

They were spotted becasue one or more of the tanks had those hexes in view and the game determined, through calculations, that there was sufficient movement in the hex, after the bombardment, for whatever reason to cause them to appear. Remember.......EVERY time you run save fifteen you are going to end up with a slightly different result becasue the random number generator and you are now in full view of Vision 50 tanks. Why don't the vision 50 tanks pick up the other units out in the open? Well ,for one they aren't moving. At least, I didn't move them when I ran that turn and it looks like the units that were spotted , in at least one case, was shown to be moving. Maybe it was all that jumping around beating out the flames on their uniforms.

There are abstractions in the game because warfare is not chess and strange things happen sometimes. Occasionally the game rolls snake eys for some poor bastard and he's spotted out in the open and 100 yards away someone else doing the same thing and the game rolls box cars and he gets away unspotted. Sometimes you can sneak scouts through enemy lines and sometimes you can't. That's just the way things go sometimes. Life isn't always " logical " and the game reflects that.
