Shoot & Scoot

[Otto von Blotto]

I don't have a problem with the type of shoot a scoot described (moving from cover a hex or 2 takeing fire and returning to the same or differnt cover as you advance or retreat) and feel it is a valid tatic. I do sometimes wonder about it when the road system is utilised in such a way as a lot of units can do the same thing over the same road hex's in the same turn thou.

(IE) when twenty or so units move up the same peice of road often for 5 hex's or more (over a km Gordon sacle is each hex is 250m) one after another fire and return back to cover in the same turn (six minuets) the traffic control to do such a thing would be horrendus.

Im not saying it should be stopped but don't think it mirrors the thrust of the game very well and can be infuriating to be on the reciving end of.
