Had an interesting thought whilst playing a scenario recently.
I'd inadvertently forgotten to rout a broken enemy from an adjacent guy. Sure enough, opponent moves in to despatch them in CC. Fair enough thought I. Should be more careful.
However, got me to thinking.
My view on calling the opponents sniper out is that I will. But I've never been convinced there's a moral obligation on anyone to do so. I appreciate this differs from the majority view.
Do those who believe the opposite of I insofar as the sniper situation, follow through in regards to all comparable situations?
So, for example, should my opponent have stated "you need to rout him". He admitted that he had spotted that I had not routed him. Churlish swine I stated (jokingly) as the situation, as far as I can see, is identical to the sniper situation.
Thoughts?
