you can also switch off weapons, but it leaves your unit rather defenseless. Doesn't stop anyone from assaulting a tank, though:rolleyes: [/B]

Something to try is recon by fire. I have turned my unit to range 0 to prevent it giving away it's location, and have it go to full range when fired on by arty. I havn't ran any tests yet in 7.1 so I'm not positive that the game is still doing this. But if it is you can put a few rounds into suspected ambush locations(using area fire) and if there is an enemy unit there, it will sometimes shoot back. That might cost you the unit firing , but it will save you what ever else the ambush would have gotten.

I've actually done that before. I figure that watching the direction incoming fire comes from is akin to listening and looking, so... to me, not cheating.

I like using Assault guns or light mortars for this. Even if it doesn't get retrun fire all the time, it usually has a serious enough effect that I either get to see the unit or surpress it enough that I can get close enough to do some real damage without losing entire squads.
