RECON units in MC

[Midge]

No Midge. You are comparing apples and oranges. These features are very different.

Patrolling will only reveal enemy units at the start of the turn, if they are in the patrolling unit's two hex range. You can not move a patrolling unit until you take it out of patrolling mode.

Recon Spotting will discover units during the turn that were not spotted at the beginning of the turn. Recon units can move, spot, move again and sometimes spot twice in one turn if you are careful with the movement points.

A fine but important distinction as VM tried to point out.

Roger Dog,

Got you now.....................is there a set % chance of spotting when doing so with Reccon ?

But I take it as Los only extends to the adjacent hex at night, Reccon Spotting at night is still "Recce By Death" ?
