Gamey?

[herroberst]

We all decry the apparent uselessness of reconnaissance vehicles in CM but it's just the game engine. In the real thing small quiet vehicles were the best thing for motor reconnaissance but when you try it in CM they don't seem to last too long. I am having some success bounding them from cover to cover or trying to, that way they discover positions and take cover before a bead can be drawn, course when your kublewagen pulls up behind a house full of Russian SMGs it doesn't work out so well :)

I normally set my troops to hide when I get them in position or they are already in position just so they don't give away their position. Flax likes to motor forward with jeeps and dump off MGs to slow my advance but I don't hold it against him, I just try to prep for it... like using advance T-70s to shoot up his jeeps... was working great until three Stugs topped the rise:smg:
