Sniper teams worthless?

[raz_atoth]

You're right about the 'Target' command.I just had a closer look at the manual:
"This is the standard fire command, instructing a unit to use all of its available
weapons to fire at the designated target."

I also played a little in the editor and saved a test scenario:panzers vs snipers ;)
What i found out is on all counts the sniper team engages the enemy targets with all the weapons at hand,not just the sniper rifle.With both Target and Target Light commands it will fire with both rifles;with a covered arc it will fire with both rifles.With no command/arc once it will spot the enemy armor it starts firing with both rifles.
Another thing i noticed is the sniper team is quite easily spotted.On 'Warrior' skill i had one occurrence where an enemy Panther spotted and engaged one of my sniper teams from about 190m.The said sniper team was hiding in trees and didn't previously fired.
And third,when they fired,they didn't even managed to button the enemy tank commander.Quite puzzling.

I'm curious if-unlike me-someone did managed to use them in an efficient manner.Because as it seems right now,the stealth factor is negligible and the accuracy leaves a lot to be desired.
