Tigrii Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 I know that tanks and guns can often escape main gun rounds when just behind a hill crest. Does the same thing work with small arms against infantry? What about grenades rolling down hills before exploding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParaBellum Posted November 20, 2002 Share Posted November 20, 2002 IIRC in the famous CMBO alpha battle AAR there is scene where a grenade thrown at a unit on a hill rolled down a few meters and hit another unit, so yes, this is simulated in CM. The problem with infantry in CM is that they do not know that open space BEHIND a ridge is a better protection than light trees in front of that ridge in full LOS to a´n enemy tank company. When under fire the AI will usually head for the nearest cover TILE, sometimes trying to get to some woods 200m in front of them instead of going back 10m. You can't oder infantry to go 'hull down' in CM. One of the things I'm hoping for in CMII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
