Is there some bug in the game or am i doing something really wrong when im playing with the soviet Guard Infantry.
When i blind the enemy tank it last for less then 1 second atleast 95% of the times.
In the begning i could use guard + tanks as a good tactic to blind the enemy vechiles but since the last patch its feels kind impossible to have a enemy vechile blinded more then 1 second.
Maby there is some point i dont understand with the abbility and i do something totlaly wrong but it feels kind strange since the latets patch.
Guard blinding the tanks.

Well, don't use it at maximum range because he can just back out of it. Also don't move the guard squad after triggering the ability. He can still use smoke to break it.
Other than that, no idea what might be wrong.

Try getting closer before you activate the ability perhaps, and don't move the squad after you do since that also breaks it.

If the model equipped with the DPSh gets killed, the ability stops.

I think it's fine as it is now, it's a doctrinal ability that can be countered by another doctrinal ability, and it lasts significantly shorter than the British button did. Plus it's a lot easier to break now.

From a plausibility standpoint, I do wonder why the tank can't move when the vision slit is broken from gunfire - and yet he can suddenly move perfectly fine when everything gets obscured in smoke.
On a more relevant note, I think it's pretty silly that button (40 muni) is canceled by an ability that costs less than half as much (panzer smoke 15 muni), especially since the guards require a 60 muni initial investment on top of that. I honestly don't think button should be cheaper, but panzer smoke is underpriced in my opinion. That's why you see it used all the time, since honestly when wouldn't you pay 15 muni to probably save your tank? Now it only costs 5 muni more than oorah fer christ sake.

You require DP machine guns to button (blind/shoot) tanks. They only fire when stationary. "Buttoning" tanks means firing on the vision slits. Now, for anyone who has seen a WWII tank, visibility is pretty much just a tiny slit in the front of the tank. I don't even know how they managed to reverse. They had a sliding metal door to close vision slits, which left them with no visibility. Beside the point.
DPs have to be stationary, don't move after buttoning.
