The removal of casualties in this game is indeed confusing. When I started  this game, my thinking was naturally that I was taking out the ones I could see first.

But you can fire at a group of  8 men, 2 of whom are behind a 20′ tall solid wall, get 2 kills and your opponent can remove the 2 that you have no LOS to at all.

Even with exceptional hits, you can pick one that your shooter could not actually have seen.

I know it’s for speed and I guess the rationalisation is that they are all jiggling about at various moments or suchlike.
