LOS and spotting

[MajorDisaster]

Yeah, it definitely pays to move slow and having some scouts in your core, (mind you, it's a challenge keeping them alive). With increased experience they spot more for you as a campaign goes on.
But why I sympathise and what I do think is a little bananas is that flak guns and other seriously large hardware is often invisible in OPEN country until it's only a few 100 metres away, Sure, infantry can lie prone and be very difficult to spot in bumpy grassland - but a Flak gun? Have you seen how tall those things really are and what sort of silhouette they have on top of a hill? Fine, in woods buildings etc, they could be very well camouflaged, and small AT like PAk38/6 pounder are very low profile so easily hidden in a cornfield etc.., but an 88mm stood in a field? I saw a PAK43 in the flesh recently - it is seriously BIG. You couldnt miss it even if you were on a speeding motorcycle - and again I stress the Open Country.. forests, bushes and the like, fair enough, an experienced unit could hide a cruise liner.
