Infantry getting slaughtered inside their APC by small-arms fire
According to the instructions, if I load infantry onto say a tank, they are presumed to be riding on top and I can expect to lose them if the tank gets sprayed by small-arms fire. If I use a proper APC, I am supposed to be able to avoid this.
Today, however, I found out it was possible for it to happen to my motorized infantrymen riding inside a BMP-2(-). It brushed past some Japanese infantry at one hex. Their antitank weapons didn't work so the BMP was fine, but somehow my entire squad was annihilated.
To be fair, so far I hadn't seen it happen to say BMP-2s under artillery fire or when they are shot at on greater distances.
Is this a new Version 7 feature?
