Help Can Tanks Reverse

[Weasel]

The only way to get around it in the non windows versions is to ensure your tanks are directly behind a crest. Then during your turn you pop up, shoot, and move back down again all in the same turn. This way they won't get a shot at your ass.

Also, don't just pop one up, shoot with him, and then move him back and go to the next. Move up a bunch of tanks and alternate your firing. Fire with tank A, then B then C and then back to A. This will prevent the target from returning fire and gaining an accuracy bonus. By alternating fire the target will always be traversing and thus not locking on.

And lastly, make sure you watch the MOVEMENT AREA carefully. You want to make sure that the hex behind your tank is always lit as a movement possible hex. If it goes dark then your tank is stuck on the hill. Your only option then is to pop smoke (D) or fire smoke rounds if you have them (X).
