Moved Panther along green line - it has a +1 spotting hero, which makes it total range 3 hex.
Weather is "Clear "(Dry)" - which for me means I have no limited sight whatsoever.

Still - the Panther did not spot the AI's infantry when in original position - just by chance I moved 2 hex forward.
One more hex movement (which spotting range as I assumed it predicted it to be empty...) and I would have hit into a surprise attack...

But I dont understand why I did not spot the infantry...

This seems strange...

This shows initial setup, no moves made. Infantry not visible and weather as mentioned in first post.

I think your spotting tank is on the Southern end of this map as it shows 3 hexes their, but not up North where you are pointing...double check your heroes

I agree

Not to hijack this tread but when it comes to spotting range(s), do all cities and airfields have a spotting range of 2 hexes?

I suspect that this goes down to 1 hex during cloudy, rainy or snowy conditions as our units do but I'm not sure.

Thanks.

I think cities one hex only and airfields none

I always thought it is just one hex when they are empty?

city hexes and airfields have vision on units right next to them. So they both have a spotting of 1. Other objective hexes have 0 vision. (These are mostly in mods and some of Afrika Korps, that I can think of.)

Yes indeed one makes mistakes, no need to rub it in.

My apologies, I had just watched that clip and it struck me funny. I did not mean to offend.
