Default Re: ATGM's firing at below minimum range.

Edit: Since the edit button doesn't seem to be working.

I recall in particular one scenario is I believe Norway where each ATGM team was capable of killing a single Soviet tank before exhausting it's ATGM supply. Since this was Norway many of the encounters were at short ranges (due to woods mostly) and normal infantry merely slowed and distracted the Soviet tanks till ATGM teams could get to the proper range. I'm not sure the Norwegians could have won if even 25% of their ATGMs had been wasted on "Hail Mary" shots.
