RECON units in MC

[Dog Soldier]

Midge,
I do not believe recon spotting is a fixed % chance. It is a variable chance and the math is not spelled out. It seems to be a function of the size, morale and fatigue of the recon unit, and the same for the enemy unit(s) in LOS. I think the math takes into account the terrain of concealed unit. It has been my experience that not all units in a stack will be spotted by recon spotting, especially if these factors are different for each unit in the stack.

You are correct that recon spotting is of no use when visibility is at one hex.
