Hiding tanks?


Recommended Posts

Hi, anybody knows the effect of hiding a tank? I'd suspect the tank would stop the engine, or at least put it idle to minimize noise, and that would be it.

But, does "hide" command also prevent it from firing?

In "huzzar!" (btw, what a game!) I have this stug hiding behind some trees, aiming to the road. A sherman appears just in front of him, 120 m. away. It keeps coming towards me, 100 m., 80 m., 40 m.! Turn ends. Next turn I use "target" and the sherman gets an instant penetration.

All the time the stug has a perfect los and line of fire, but some reason kept it from firing. And I suspect it was the hide order, just asking for confirmation.

My enemy never saw the stug. Great camouflage skill!

In case my bad english is too hard to understand:
