So have I read this right? if a unit has a RF then it should get a RF value between 6-10?
We said 6-10 post ww2 tanks as a general rule of thumb to give the early OOB designers a benchmark to work from...values under 5 tend to be used for WW2 type tank sights as we said

......and ONCE AGAIN I say we are NOT making further changes to the OOB's and that really is the last time I am going to tell you that
