Dramatic Tension! - fluidwill - 11-07-2008

After spending turns manhandling an AT gun through some woods to get a 50/50 "desperate times" shot I've just watched it spend 45 secs pivoting to face the target only for the turn to end with it still having 5mins to go in clock terms - argh!
Does the gun turn slower because its in trees? woods infact to be specific

I believe yes, terrain does effect pivoting of guns and vehicles.

I find it more frustrating to turn back to another target(without firing at the first), then back again, then again to something else all in the same turn without firing a shot. Only to die from incoming. That is when it would be nice to have the designer with you to say, "what were you thinking?"

Set covered arc and that problem goes away.

Was trying to think why it doesnt usually bother me and came to conclusion that when I use AT guns its usually in the bore-sited, keyholed, covered arced ambush making kind of way, so rotating isn't usually an issue.
