Some little odd things

[DRG]

I tried a test where I bought 6 emplacements and just auto deployed them and all but one showed suppression by turn 2

I tried another where I manually placed them and I kept them more or less close together by formation and they did not show supression to turn 6 when I stopped testing for the night so it may have to do with how close the subordinate units are from the command unit but testing is still ongoing

Problem is that while fortifications may be purchased as a group they're rarely deployed that way.

Live with it or get creative.
One could change the formation to "company" level then each individual fortification being "Platoon" level.
May "fix" the problem.

OK....... try that and let me know what the result is.

A) If all the subordinate units are within 5 hexes of the HQ unit NO suppression.

B) If a subordinate unit is within 5 hexes of ANY other unit they seem to be suppressed much less often, if at all.

C) A SOLO (i.e. no subordinate units) fortification, even if it's the HQ unit, within, or outside of, command range of other units gets suppressed about 50% of the time often.

Just wanted to add, I tend to play with Command set to off in my realism preferences, so this isn't a problem. I did notice the suppression to be about what Suhiir said above when I set Command to on, then it went away after I switched it off again.
