Cool! Some epic moments you had there. His Tigers stood no chance against your IS2 + two AT guns  ;D. Also, when you built an Observer squad I was a bit sceptical, buy then they turned out to change the tide of the entire battle: wiping half of his infantry blob with rockets and then providing FoV for your AT and KV-2.
P.S. KV-2's exterminatus cannon rocks  :)

haha, I always use the recon units when i need. Is not totaly usual but realy they can be the point to win or to make the diference in some situations of the battle. Lots of units have more shoot range than fov. For example, people use infantry to see the objetives to snipers. the mg42 of the werhmach with the fov of the motorbike is more usefull.

True that. It's especially true when talking about AT guns, pretty much every gun has a range way bigger than their sight distance (Flak 88, I think, has a range of 100, with sight range of 30 or something; the same goes for every other gun). Also I like using dual snipers as the Americans (one as a spotter and the other as killer), it's a deadly pair, picking off enemy soldiers at a whooping range with no fear of retaliation.
