Weapons not firing correctly??

If it was damaged, did it have a full crew? If the crew suffered casaulties, there might be just enough of them to fire one weapon at any range.

I had no idea of the mechanism but this is quite realistic, tanks did not tend to fire there MGs at range apart from co-ax as RF. As Griefbringer said 6 hexes seems about the tipping point to bring everything on line in most cases.

Yeah the TD had been damaged; it had been strafed/bombed during an air strike.
I’m not sure if there were any crew casualties but it was suppressed some, 4 to 6, if I remember correctly. Some “time” had passed between the air strike and when the infantry got so close.

The thing is that there was another TD sitting beside it when the infantry got so close and it was doing the same thing, only firing the 75. The second TD had not been hit in the air strike and was 4? hexes away when the first one got zapped by the plane. I had moved it up closer to the first during the initial fighting with the infantry.
