> Wow. The turret is more nimble than I thought.

I said it was probably faster and lighter than it looked...
I wonder what happens if someone is standing on the tank and gets hit by the turret...

I think the size of the circle depends on the spread of the firing pattern, the less accurate the larger the circle. The bullets from the assault rifle would spread in a cone filling the circles. The larger circle lagged behind because it takes some time for the bullets to travel the distance, and so it automatically compensates making it easer to lead a target. Basically match the circle representing the correct distance with the target and follow the target with it.

> And were those rocket things being launched from the jeep?

I noticed that too, but I couldn't tell where they came from. And the projectile went in an arc and impacted on the ground ahead, maybe it was a grenade. And I didn't see an explosion, but I did see what looked like a flash.
