Scouting Party During war, fortifications are built behind natural barriers such as hills. In open terrains battle tanks and other armored vehicles can move quickly and attack the deep defense. Impassable terrain could be used to the defenders' advantage. For the attacking forces, there is no way to assess the strength of the other side as they are hiding behind the fortifications built around these barriers. One of the ways to do this is by sending a scouting party. A few troops are send to get information about the area and about the enemy’s movements and position. 028.1 ▪️Scouting Party
