(Answered) CO - Camouflage Special Command Ability
« on: 18 August 2018, 19:14:40 »
Campaign Operations, page 83.
Quote
Ground units that are part of a Force with this ability and use
the Stand Still movement option receive a –2 Target Movement
Modifier, in place of the usual +0.

This seems, to my mind, backwards. A -2 TMM means the enemy can hit you easier... where as the Alpha Strike version of the same ability (Combat Manual: Mercenaries, page 91) provides a bonus to TMM meaning an penalty to the enemy hitting you if you stand still. One might wonder why anyone would use this ability as it stands.

Yep, it's backwards, should be +2.
