Tactics and Correct use of Scouts ?

[chuckfourth]

Hi PPoS
The more of your units that have a particular hex in LOS the more chance you have of seeing the enemy in that hex. But it should be very difficult to sneak up on positions, you are after all moving and the enemy is stationary.
One quibble I have with the game is the bonus morale and experience of scouts. As a corporal (in training) I would usually put the worst soldier on point as you are sure to lose him in a contact because no matter how good he is he wont see what or who gets him.
Im not sure what in-game scouts represent, in my experience they are simply several men from one of the platoons squads rather than a distinct "elite" unit. I think this would warrant them having the same morale and experience as the line unit.
Best Regards Chuck.
