It won't force anyone to do anything. It would be an optional realism button, that people could choose to use, especially if they are playing against forces they know really well.

Marek,

I absolutely agree that AFVs may never show damage/losses they have sustained. Which is one of the reasons I support - the testing of - a 'disable unit info' button.

I was merely being 'Devil's advocate' showing that there can be times where visible damage is realistic.

cheers,

This is draging on but shows the way people think diffrently.
I have never used it to check for vehicle damage nor had the thought even occured to me.
Use it to find info on a vehicle gun ATGM I am unsure about or as said to check thats the squad I saw fire in the replay or know is there if a couple of days between turns, which one was he?
For a vehicle I see how fast its going & make a guestimate on how buttoned it is shots left & range for an approach, who says men cant multitask
I would think its you who are in the minority & using the exploit rather than most of us.
Its a computer game & hence treat like most games of that type quick play with odd reference to what is a player aid.
A board game or something with a complex rule system then game pace slows down & charts & tables come out is my mentality.
