RE: [SG]Unit Cohesion

Ahhh. 

Except observing is an action. The disorganized unit could 
not perform the Observe action to find out if a counter was 
real or a dummy.

If the scenario has "observe from X range is a free action", 
then a special rule needs to be added to cover the situation 
of an unorganzed unit stumbling over a counter.

In any case, the hidden unit would have a chance to suppress 
the disorganized unit. the disorganized unit would then have 
to find cover to reorganize (can't be done in the open while suppressed)
and
then spend its actions to first reorganize 
and then to remove the suppression.

In all cases, it was pretty cheezy (though innovative). The 
only legtimate reason, that I can think of, for a unit to 
disorganize (different from detachments) would be to avoid 
the entire unit being captured (Special Forces team is 
faced with overwhelming opposition and decides to "split 
up and meet at the rendezvous point at 21:00".)

The rescue scenario has you place many counters on the
board, any one of which may be the pilot.  By splitting
up he investigated 5 counters in one activation.
