Sighting Bug?

My opponent fired this unit at the woods tile in front of it and when he did his unit light up in my view, even though I had no unit with a line of sight to it. My opponent also reported that one of my units appeared in his view when I fired it at a woods tile, even though he had no unit with a line of site to it. Is this a bug? This was in a skirmish MP game.

It's strange that no one reported this in BA1, I saw it too.

I think it has to do with that unit using suppression fire...like the sounds of firing give away their position.

So I need someone to confirm this is either a bug or it is expected behavior.

I think this is working as intended. It is possible to 'see' units without a LOS from a specific friendly unit.

Well, I have to say that seems odd to me. My opponent in a current game said he saw my unit, exact type, fire at a suspected enemy location even though he had no unit within 10 squares. Must have some soldiers good at identifying battle sounds to specific vehicle type and location.
