Jaldaen Posted June 16, 2001 Share Posted June 16, 2001 Can you order a unit to shoot at another unit only once and then hide? I've tried giving them the target order and then the hide command, but then they just sit there... Help me forum members you're my only hope... BTW- if this is not an option, I'd like to see one for CM2 Thanks, Jaldaen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted June 16, 2001 Share Posted June 16, 2001 My PIAT/Bazooka/Panzerschreck teams usually fire just once and then stop... forever. Really, no. You can't order single volleys. Why do you need it anyway, trying to simulate Napoleonic wars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaldaen Posted June 16, 2001 Author Share Posted June 16, 2001 It would be perfect order for sharpshooters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted June 16, 2001 Share Posted June 16, 2001 A workaround I use sometimes is to give the unit a movement order, with a pause if necessary, so it will fire a couple times then reposition and hide. It doesn't always work of course if the unit begins to take heavy fire. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingfish Posted June 16, 2001 Share Posted June 16, 2001 Kinda, but the timing is tricky, and it doesn't always work. Example: I had a crack 234/1 hiding behind a small rise, having just reversed there when he encountered a strong armored force in the distance. I gave him a short move command, to the top of the rise, and then an immediate reverse. The first time he picked off a HT and scooted back down before the Shermans could lock on. The next turn another HT, the next a universal carrier. Each time the he got off one shot before rolling out of sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
