Hi All!


This is the BEST answer I've heard so far. Strangely enough, it's the
one I use, also.

I once played against a guy (in another game system,) that targeted my
units by sound alone, (not even ONE spotter!). He shot his artillery
OVER a hill I was hiding behind, with no spotters or line of sight.

This kind of Super Smelly Cheese, is the also related to the lesser
cheese of targeting units in forests indirectly. Which is also related
to targeting (as far as you know,) THE empty building that JUST happens
to contain enemy troops you can't see.

The only other good way to play, is to assume everyone has proximity
sensors that can not be jammed. But if this is the case, an enemy could
also create a device to give a false proximity signal. So, your back to
the original problem.
