Is this cheating? Creating fake targets for enemy arty?

In some cases renaming tanks might be ok, say I have seen late-war pictures of German tanks so heavily camoflaged that from a distance you could not say if it is a haystack or a tank. So IMO renaming a StuH to a StuG would be ok....you would give a kinda goofy impression of yourself by renaming a PzKpfw I to a Kingtiger though :P

Sometimes I have renamed my sniper as a schoolgirl or scouts to boyscouts or tramps ...imagine your opponent watching a replay of his arty firing and seeing that he has killed a schoolgirl

hehe...years ago I renamed often my scouts as : "mushroom picker" "civil tourist" "civil passer" "civilian" etc. but mostly my opponents had not enough sense of humor and commited a war crime
