Why does the game report the T-34 (red arrow) is out of my hull facing?

The same warning also appeared when I attempted firing at the other highlighted (i.e. in LOS) Russian units (yellow arrows).

I supposed the issue might be related to the presence of non-playable hexes, but this does not appear to affect the other Stug (green arrow), which fired at the T-34 without any warning appearing.

In the subsequent Russian fire segment, the T-34 fired at the StuG that could not fire at it, kept ROF...

... and with its second shot destroyed the StuG.

Is there some reason I fail to see for this one-way LOS?

In the end, even the one-way LOS didn't prevent the AI from suffering the usual bloodbath and another Major Victory [>:] [>:] [>:]

+1. The same inconvenient occurs in the same scenario.

Search rather in the t-34s entrenched on the hill.

What should this mean? [&:]

What, with such major victories, you don't understand?[&:]

I only would like to know why the game tells me the T-34 and all other possible targets, which are highlighted as if they were visibile, are out of my hull facing.

What, with such major victories, you don't understand?

Basically, I'm wondering why I have resumed playing [&:]

Non-Playable hex is not a terrain type (like say for example: Woods, Brush, Clear, Water etc...) and it should not be used in such way.

Thanks, Peter [&o]

In this case, it is the angle of the t-34 on the hill that is problematic. the German tank below can not have it in its line of sight following the hex where it is while the t-34 can shoot him.
Not [&o].[:D]

I think you are missing the point altogether.

Please look at the image I posted in the opening post. The StuG has a LOS at the T-34, at the radio-equipped stack and at the Russian AT Gun (they are all highlighted) but when I attempted firing the message I get is "Target outside Hull facing", even though all of them lie in the StuG VCA.

At the same time, the other StuG, with a LOS/LOF that also crosses a single non-playable hex, fired at the T-34 without any issue (it only managed to immobilise it before being destroyed, but... c'est la guerre [:D])

Doesn't this sound weird to you?

Yes, it is life, there is on one side those who believe to know and on the other those who know.[:D]
