Air recon and carpet bombing question

[Ricky B]

The setup of the German units on the east edge is to represent the units lined up toward Germany off map, to help limit the number being treated as reinforcements. I believe Glenn stated this quite awhile ago.

Either way, I would say purposely hitting fixed units in any game is generally gamey, assuming it is based strictly on studying enemy dispositions from the scenario startup. On the other hand, the German player can take the units out of travel mode, and the allied air is very weak generally, so it probably wouldn't be a game breaker if it happened anyway - losses would probably be low.
