Moving Guns Quietly


Recommended Posts

On occasion, I've wanted to move my AT guns away from an area, but have found that as soon as the gun begins the next turn, it automatically opens up on whatever enemy units it has LOS to until its command delay is over, and *then* it begins to move.

Is there no way to move a hidden gun away from visible enemy units without the gun opening fire? You can do it with infantry by using the sneak command, but guns don't have a sneak command.

Also, is there a specific reason why guns can't be pulled backwards?

Thanks.

Try plotting an ambush point 1m in front of the gun along with "HIDE" orders before ordering it to move.

I am not sure it will work as you want, but it is what I would try.

Good idea! Why didn't I think of that? Thanks.

This can also work for mortar teams, but unfortunately not for MGs. You'd need to use a third party to set the ambush marker.
