Ambushes... Who sees what?

Post by GottaLove88s »

Theoretical question... If there's a really great spot for a 17 pdr to ambush a Tiger, but the 17 pdr gets seen and destroyed... But I have another 17 pdr... So if I put the second 17 pdr in exactly the same ambush position as the first... In my view I see my ambush gun... What does my MP opponent see? Right now it's the smoking ruins of the dead AT gun... Will that update to empty scenery... Or will they still see smoking ruins that aren't there any more?

Once a tile is seen, anything that moves through the tile is seen (I think!). So the enemy would indeed see the unit if you place it there immedately.

That is IIRC of course.
