I recently switched from Final Blitzkrieg to Red Thunder and noticed that I fail to spot enemies in defensive positions despite my spotters being in the first line and having a good line of sight due to the open terrain. This obviously results in casualties as my units are getting suprised by enemy fire. When I try to be more careful I often don`t have the time to achieve my objectives.
For example, in the second mission of the "Blunting the spear" campaing I lost because some hidden T-34s took out too much tanks of my own. Is there any way I can find a balance between careful spotting and pushing forward?
