Recon Units and Scouting

[Cole]

The extra scouting features would be good but probably would be best suited for very large scenarios.

My thought is that during WW2 there was not a continuous front line such as WW1. Even in the Winter of 1944 there was probably a few sectors, lonely roads, fields, etc that were only lightly guarded or not at all. The job of the recon was to find these neglected areas and push through. The problem for our little recon guys that keep getting killed in CS is that our scenarios pretty much depict when both sides are going to engage. The recon phase is mostly over and now it's time to fight it out. Don't get me wrong there's still room to explore the battle field but once there's intel of enemy panzers I don't think the little jeep guys would be scurrying down the road just as fast.

All for the new hidden scouting features and more improvements such as AT guns able to fire without being spotted. My thought is that these improvements will be the same as the extreme assault. It will make the game more realistic but will tend to mess up the earliest designed scenarios.
