The only 40mm Gls in the Croatian OOB are used by " ForeignAdvisors" and one ( 1 ) commando unit. Garbage in - Garbage out...if you are going to comment on the way the game works make sure your facts are straight. There's a BIG difference between Croatia and Finland

We don't know how big a map your test was on or the terrain OR THE VISIBILITY.......so reports of failed tests without posting the test scenario is a waste of time and effort and we cannot even begin to offer an explanation without one....... We don't even know what you set your visibility to........ Yugo M-80s have 20 vision--------30 in the M-80AK .......Finn Patras have 40. If your visibility for the IFV test was say.....35 then NO WONDER the Yugo M-80s didn't fire back.......they couldn't even see the Patras that were killing them.

So methinks the answer to the question "so what is the problem here? " is "your test" but nobody can know for sure without the test
Man, chill, its a game, no reason to be angry..

As I said before, I found the Patria's in the Finn OOB, I am not sure which Patria's Croatia has in real life, so I decided to put both 50 cal and GL, even if they don't have the GL in their oob, it isn't that big of a blasphemy. For example Yugoslavia has the S-300 in their oob, even though it doesn't have it in real life and never has, so there are some mistakes, so I put both vehicles just to be sure..

Regarding the visibility thing, I said that all other scenarios worked normally, so that's not the problem, the map itself is really small and the distance between the vehicles is some 5 to 8 hexes, again, everything else works, the only problem is when I put the GL vehicle.

I still don't see the test attached so commenting further is pointless speculation as to why there was no return fire because in the test I ran, based on the Patras being Finn.............both the GL patras AND the M-80s fired back at one another the way they should so my test does not show what your test showed so without your test we have no way to know why the M-80s did nothing when in mine they reacted and fired back normally.

It's important to remember that this game design dates back to 1995 and the original Steel Panthers (which by the way I remember picking up in the bargain bin right before a trip to florida -- all the way to florida, I kept seeing hexes, lol).
