Last turn I fired at a Russian Rifle Platoon more than a 20 times with my own Rifle and Engineer squads at 1 and 2 hex range, the to-hit percentatages ranged from 20+ to 80+ %, and I only caused 2 casualties!
Hmmm !!! Maybe you should send your officers back to tactical training center...when they had listen to their teachers in the first, they would know, that no matter how often you shoot at something, you cannot hit it, when you don't have a direct line of fire (for rifles of course). So when a bunch of soldiers hides behind some walls or whatever, it does not matter if you shoot 10 or 30 times - they will keep their heads down ;)
But here's German infantry doctrine from now (didn't change since 1945):
One third of the platoon (with as much MGs as possible) puts a lot of bullets on the target, directed by a sergeant. The other two thirds, lead by the officer, STORM the enemy positions from the side (if possible), entering in close combat and trenchfighting. The sergeant of the support troop will stop firing as soon as the officer signals he's about to enter the entrenchments.
So if you don't move your troops the last one or two hexes up to the enemy, you'll never get 'em...and that's the way it is :D
