Does rotating your units cause them to become spotted?

[K K Rossokolski]

Hi fellas. the thread title says it all.

I often rotate my non-armored units to the northeast because it makes them much easier to recognize in 3d mode. Many of you who have played against me have no doubt recognized this curious behavior.

But I had a dreadful thought recently that this might cause units rotated in LOS of the enemy to become spotted. Do they?

If not, I suppose it is possible my opponent could surmise the possible numbers of platoons in the hex... by noting the location those (presently visible) units occupy within the hex itself, but I digress.

It makes my force look really organized and units easy to identify, but if it comes at the cost of revealing my units, I may have to rethink this.

Your input is appreciated.

I can't speak exactly to tank rotation, John, but try another example of a "minor movement", let's call it. I dig in a lot. Every time I hit the shovel button on some well hidden bunch of engineers,the world opens up on them.

And fair enough. Rotation and digging are movements You move, you are revealing something to the enemy.

BTW. I have no idea what happened above, but it wasn't caused by me. To post something, you have to hit the button .
I love this wonderful new MB...0 steps forward, 100 steps back. Bring back the old one.
