Units Walking around while Suppressed

Or no joke I had a vickers fire a whole burst of it's MG on a point blank SturmPio squad and it didn't get suppressed and walked in back of it and killed it. Like, what's going on there? Suppression feels like it just works when it wants to.

Takes 2 burst from Vickers to suppress units.

It's probably a bug like when you retreat a unit except instead they dick around for a sec or two before bolting for it.


Nah, every HMG will suppress at point blank in one burst.

Depends on the amount of cover of the approaching squad too. Suppression is a pretty complex component of coh2. Vickers has the least amount of suppression and will often fail to suppress a unit with the first burst.

I tested it myself, Vickers will suppress something supa-close to it in one burst as long as it's not in heavy cover.

And if it is in heavy cover, of course, no HMG will suppress a target in it in one burst.

And if the Sturmpioneers were in heavy cover MarkedRaptor, I'm afraid you dun goofed!

No this was out in the open, stormpois walked straight past my MG with that 1 burst.
