Default Re: Improvement proposal I - OP fire draining

Isn't nr 2 just another way of describing recon by contact? And isn't that an age old tactic? It's like taking turns taking point on a patrol. Except you don't let the guy with the only radio take point. He's not expendable (wel, his radio isn't). If there is risk of taking fire when moving out, it's not uncommon to move more expendable assets first.

And as to the level of control, it's because of the detailed, god-like, control you have during your own turn that is is such a great addition to have only limited control during the opponents turn. It offsets the very unrealistic amount of control to some degree and introduces some randomness, uncertainty and murphyism that any game which strives to be a realistic simulation of combat needs. That's my view at least.

Edit: Artur, I typed this before I saw your last post. It's been a good debate, made me think about the game and it's features some more.
