Drawing opportunity fire actions - disreputable or part of the game?

[Mr Grumpy]

No to my knowledge there has never been any official comment from HPS/JTS on how players should conduct them selves in the tactics that they use when playing these titles, neither has there ever been a set of house rules for the PzC/MC series that I am aware of (I have seen some for the Tiller Napoleonic series).

Over the years there have been engine changes to try to prevent some aspects of gamey play with some success but it may be the case that it is impossible to make the game engine perfect in regards to forcing players to always use historical tactics.

Best advice is if something really annoys you discuss it with your opponent before you start.
