[Machine Gun deployment in buildings.]

Random thought, but if I send a MG team into a building and they enter their lengthy setup period, if they engaged someone does it reset or slowdown the setup time?

Am I crazy to think that my units are spotted way too early. And further that they don't seem to return fire? 

 

 

I mean, how does a 2 man MG squad spot and suppress my guys so quickly.....while my guys fail to do anything in response. 


Also, could it be that I don't understand how recon/spotting works for units in brush? Is there a level of forest/brush that you can crawl in and spot in while still being very hidden?

[Hating Russian AGL team in August Morning!!]

Mentioned this in my first post. But after buying my first CM game last sunday, I've spent all my time constantly replaying an august morning. Can't tell you how many times I've tried stealthly moving my recon/machine gun teams around only for them to get shot by the MG or AGS team....or pummeled by a mortar. What is super frustrating is that since I know where the FO/MG team typically is (the house behind the map reference point), I know where they should and should not be able to see me. Regardless, my teams are always spotted well before i can see them

 

PS, even though i know where the enemy is, I treat each scenario like its a new thing and try and respond as i take fire or observe troops.

I agree with the post above. I bought BS on Sunday and have been trying to beat the smallest quickbattle mission. Can't recall the name, but its a US recconing a destroyed command vehicle. My US guys on the hill (tried various setups but I typically have 1 MMG and 1 rifle section up there) get pinned and cowered from one enemy MG.
