I lost a 45+kill sniper to a vetted rifle squad. I was at max range, and right clicked on the rifle squad. My sniper decided to close the gap and fire a shot. He also received two M1 Garand rounds and a bazooka shot on retreat, killing him.
I have noticed this before... is this a bug? Was my sniper trying to get a better shot? Was he suffering from PTSD and just wanted to get end his sad, murderous life? The rifles were behind a wrecked puma (I lost it because I lagged for a few seconds...haaaaa. It really was a great game. Lots of lag and shrek shots into the ground >_< ) but it wasn't burning (did not block LoS).

Sometimes it seems the sniper wants to go closer than necessary when you right-click an enemy unit. What I do is hitting the stop command (W if you use grid hotkeys, S if you use standard) once the sniper is in range. If you have multiple sniper squads selected you can`t see the range indicator-line but after few games you can pretty much tell anyways.
