Personally I like 'Move to Contact' in many situations because it guarantees your men will instantly stop moving when they're shot at and return fire. It's also good in woods. I mean, if you're ambushed the last thing you want to do is keep walking blindly into it..:)

I agree with POS in that each of us has a playing style that affects how one moves his units around the battlefield. I am not a fan of Move to Contact in general but agree that there are instances when it is a great way to move around. The downside to move to contact is that units stop when contact is made while the rest of the formation may continue to move. This can string out your units and affect command, and actually place your men out of LOS of the enemy if he is moving too. I think that Move to Contact is the way to go if the enemy location is somewhat known or your units will have good cover all through the Move to Contact order. Otherwise I like to move fast or advance to a location and stop there, where "I" want my men, reguardless of who they see. I like to run my armour (and men) like an "on" "off" switch, I move flat out to a location and stop, these jumps are short but I would rather be in a position of my choosing then stopping to fire where I could be in a outnumbered or poor firing position.
