I see your point but if you have a large number of tanks, and/or other AFV's, fitted with ATGM countermeasures will this not serve to also confuse the missiles? |
Yes. Emphatically hell yes. We see it in our too. Two tanks sharing a hex will both benefit from the VIRSS counter measures deployed by the targeted tank. Furthermore, if you target the second tank, your missile hit chance drops significantly. Don't waste the second shot.
Oh my goodness, I got the Flamingos, "I only have eyes for you" playing in the other room. BYE!
