Yeah, I found that to be a real piss off when I saw a transport coming
from OFF SCREEN. As for knowing the entire map, well they have radar
and if they were there before, they might've scoped the area right?
Think of it, if they established a base, they know the surroundings
and the way the radar works here, if a unit saw it, it's on the radar
from now on. So he should see everything. But I find the best thing to
do is get a spy in an APV and run over all the dogs that are between
you and his radar dome. If it gets blown up, then run as fast as you
can for the radar dome and use it.
