Sniper teams worthless?

[enigma6584]

In CMSF, I use sniper teams in conjunction with "cover arcs." The "cover arcs" are for the effective range of the sniper weapon and thus only the sniper took shots. I can't answer your question regarding CMBN sniper teams because I haven't used them yet but I would have assumed the same. The TacAI handled who fired when using cover arcs. It may be a bug in CMBN but I will have to check it out.

One other thing before I forget. When one wanted to control even more what sniper teams did in CMSF, the player would split the team down into two parts, the sniper and the support team. That way he was assured of only the sniper shooting. Also, cover or concealment plays a big part on whether they can be seen or not. Make sure that sniper is in trees with plenty of ground cover. Just a thought.
