OK, I can see now they can be quite useful in certain situation. I will try employing them in my defence from now on..

Yes we are getting of the time period, but... I know that British FO use the GPS on flat terrain i.e. desert, by giving the guns cp the FO loc stat. Then using a laser range finder give a correction to the target from their own location. So in effect you are giving a target location as your position then applying a correction. You want to hope the guns cp apply the correction. I see that as a risky business. Back to TRP..are they worth their value?

On defending Veh. Does "hidding" have any real advantage. I had TDs in hidding and then just open up without orders. This can be frustrating if I am trying to plan a ambush.

I generally use my HT for two roles. First is to move heavy weapons around the battle field, Mortas and HMG being genarally slow and cumbersone. (this was mentioned early) Second is to use them as a Ready Reaction Force in defence and a Reserve Force in attack. I never commit them early as they are "soft" targets even for HMGs
