PIAT displaying range wrongly

Post by Ryben »

Bazooka and PIAT units, when pressed "1" to display the range shows distance 5 squares but is should be 2 (their firing range) isn´t?

Isn´t the same?

If the PIAT have only range 2 i guess the LOS, although it may extend more than these two squares, shouldn´t be highlighted as the weapon cannot fire beyond that point.

This shot shows a scout. The lighter shade of red is where he can shoot, the darker is how far he can see.

I believe the shift key only works for on board units with bombard. Place the valid bombard symbol over your target and press shift.
