Patrolling

[JonS1]

The user manual states that a unit that is patrolling has both its fire and assault values reduced to 3/4. The manual also states that a unit digging in has its fire value reduced to 1/2. If both of those effects are cumulative, which they very well could be, then it is completely realistic.

Good point Ed -but this is why people need to look at BTL files when they look at these things.

I setup a test shot
1) One unit Patrolling
2) Same unit Digging in
3) A unit both Digging In and Patrolling

Case #1 is 3/4 as docs say
Case #2 is 1/2 like the docs say
Case #3 fire is less than both Case #1 and #2 and the whole 100% fire is not used.

That's all well and good (seriously, it is), but what of a unit that is digging, or clearing mines, or sumfink, that chooses to patrol or fire or whatever as well. Granted diggers that fire won't dig, but what of the other activities - how are they affected by double dipping? Are they affected by double dipping?
