Bug in optional rules?

[Narwan]

Have just started a Alt campaign gam, France '40 1x.

Optional rules have been selected as those advised for Alt scenario's so the 'Indirect fire and Airstrikes by the map' is off and 'Limited air recon' is on.

Yet my opponent is able to use recon aircraft to spot units moving deep inland and then uses his Luftewaffe to smash them to bits. An I mean really smash them to bits, some units are below 50% in one turn.
According to the settings of the optional rules that should be impossible:

"Limited Air Recon – when this rule is selected, then enemy units spotted using air recon cannot be targeted for air or artillery attacks unless the enemy unit is also seen by a friendly ground unit that is eligible to spot for the attack (or by using a "By Map" attack, see above rule)."


Am I missing something? Because this way it's going to be very, very easy for the german player.
